I made the ps2mouse adaptor for cpc and the pic programmer , I took the hex program from bruce so that I program my pic but an error appears. The error says: " Varify failed at address 0000h! " The steps that I follow are:
I adapt the program in the right settings and I open the hex file that I have downloaded from cpcwiki and then I click on "program all" .
Can anyone help me to solve my problem?
Thanks
PM with suggestions sent...

PICs don't have write protection, only read protection (known as Code Protection) to stop someone from extracting your code. But even with that turned on, you can over-write the PIC.

Right, you can overwrite - but you can't check. So a check of 'is data written correctly' could produce the above error message. Any other ideas?
No, when you do a "Write and Verify", the data is written, then verified and only then does the Code Protect bit gets set and user decides whether Code-Protect is set or not with and option in the PC program he's using. So you can still do all the verifying you want.

Oh, good to know! ;)
