Is it possible to download code that resides in a BSP2e?

I have lost the original code due to a PC change.

    If you look in the FAQ sticky thread at the top of the forum you will find the answer to you question along with a lot of other helpful information.

    From the FAQ:

    Recovering Program from stamp to make copies/back ups

    The question comes up about loosing source code or wanting to copy a chip someone else has made
    This question raises an eyebrow about the persons legal rights/morals as to making illegal copies
    regardless of the reasoning, recovering source code from a chip is not something that is practical.
    An advanced programmer may be able to write a program to dump the EEPROM and get the PBASIC tokens
    from the chip [noparse][[/noparse]other than the area they overwrote with there program], and reverse engineer it.
    but the effort would be more work than re-writing from scratch [noparse][[/noparse]not to mention incomplete]
    So, in response to that question, My reply is "You Can't", So making backups of your development is highly advised.
