The OS file should be in your c:\Program Files\microchip\PK2 directory if you installed it normally.

The file name is "PK2V023200.hex".

If it is not there you can download from microchip website here:

http://www.microchip.com/stellent/idcpl ... ts=pickit2

Filename is Pickit 2 firmware V2.32

Why need to download from Cytron website? The file pointed by Allen is under PICkit 2 programmer folder, you surely will have it on your computer, else you will not be able to download the OS 8-)

Didnt check the OS file in Cytron. But if it works then it's OK, if it doesnt work, it wont kill your PIC anyway. 8-)

Hi..i have program my coding into my pic(pic16f877a) using pickit2. when i want to write, it stated that "if you continue, it will difficult to program or erase properly". And i continue..my program was success. But later on, when i want to program a new coding with blank check first, it pop-up again and stated "Program memory is not blanking starting at address 0x000200".

What is the problem? How i can solve it? Thanks..
