hardware not found error
i'm having some trouble with my stamp. it keeps saying hardware not found
when i'm trying to test the program. i have the scott edwards book with the
cd and i'm running the stamp2.exe from the cd, but i keep getting the error
message, hardware not found.
i've got a working nine volt battery and the plug going into the COM port of
my computer and i don't understand why it isn't working...
any suggestions...???

If you are using a different stamp, change the type to reflect that. See
the BASIC Stamp Programming Manual 2.0c, Page 35 for more information.
Hope this helps...

8.1v. the voltage regulator needs a voltage overhead to work properly. It
usually happens right after I've just added some exotic (for me) new circuit.
That's when I figure I fried the stamp. Now I check the Battery level with a
DVM before I start gnashing and wailing.
I hope this is the problem for you--

still
be good and i tried it with another one that was at 8.9v so it's not the
battery level..

·····I had the same problem with a Basic stamp..... I did find out what was
causing the problem it was the computer. I guess the com port was not
configure correctly... I had the same problem with three other computers with
was two PIII and one Celeron 550 laptop.... ··I still have the problem I had
to go back to useing my ole computer which is a PII-450...
