i dont know any of this, what does a parallel port look like? what does a serial
adapter look like. i have a big black cord, with a little tab end with
three-pin heads. and then i got a big *** end with 25 pins and it fits in my
printer port.

How are you connecting to the BASIC Stamp? Serial? Parallel?

If serial -- are you using the serial adapter (you can't use a straight
serial cable with the Super Carrier, you need the serial adapter). The
programming connection for the BS1 is a 3-pin header; you must be
connected to that for the compiler to find the BS1.

i just got this stuff, and i literally dont know what im doing. but i
have the Basic Stamp Manual and i hooked up from my serial port, the
Basic Stamp Super Carrier, with the BS1 hooked into it. according to
the book, its all hooked up right. then i typed in the first code it
told me to mess with, which was:

' {$BASIC BS1}
DEBUG "Hello World!"

and when i run it. it says:

ERROR - Hardware not found
