my Stamp has a problem. it works 100% on my tower computer but on my
laptop computer when i try to run the program a sign comes up and
says "ERROR: EEPROM verify failed". do you think i need a new EEPROM
chip? i already know that it is not the batt or the cable or the
software. send back ideas.

laptops won't work with the Stamp I's parallel port
programming setup. Mine won't either.

Your problem has nothing to do with your stamp. Many
laptops won't work with the Stamp I's parallel port
programming setup. Mine won't either.

not "handware not found"
stamp II, but I have found that both the dos and windows versions work
fine on my Inspiron laptop (laptop sux but software works good<G>).
I did have a problem where I kept getting a message about the basic stamp
not responding, that parallax tech support diagnosed as a damaged stamp.
After getting a new stamp, getting the same message, I started trying
other things. Turns out that the perfectly-good-looking, nearly brand
new, serial cable was defective. Stole an old cable off of a decrepit
modem in my junk box, got a 9-to25 adapter, and veeola, both stamps
worked fine.
but as for the laptop, works ok!

I have a problem that might be ralated to yours.
I have posted it, and it is Number 1422 "Problem with download"
It might give you a lead, or check any replies to that posting as
they might help you.
Good luck to you,

wrong from me.
I bought my Basic Stamp some years ago and now I´m trying to make it work again.
However, when I try to run
a program, wrote on my PC, I receive the message: "ERROR EEPROM verify failed".
At the very begin I thought it could be an eeprom error (obvious!) but there´s
an old program (perhaps 2 years old) running in the Stamp, because I can see the
LEDs blinking on the protoboard.
When I disconnect the cable that link my PC to the basic stamp, I got the
message: HARDWARE NOT PRESENT (or something alike).
Could somebody help me, please? Thank you very much in advance.
