I have a picaxe 18x. All worked fine for one week, but suddenly (and without any logic reason) I started to have a communication error every time I try to download new software on the microcontroller.
Nothing has changed in my circuit and after a week of troubleshooting (checking cables, connections, voltage, etc.) I verified that the problem was software related by using another PC (with the same serial cable!). In fact, by using another PC I can download software normally. I also tested my com1 port and I'm sure it works properly.
Uninstalling and reinstalling the software doesn't solve the problem. I deleted the spurious files left by progedit installation before reinstalling and I also deleted registry entry that was related to the software itself. Still I can't download software on my picaxe using my PC...
Can someone help me? I'm using a w2k sp4 environment.
