attempting to run a DOS program on a
Windows machine. Windows is really difficult with programs like our DOS
BS1 editor because we need direct control of the port to bit-bang 4800
baud serial to the BS1. If your version of Windows allows, reboot in
DOS mode before running the editor.

A silly question perhaps, but you do have the programming cable plugged
in correctly, right? Look for the >> marks on the cable and board to
align.

If you are in fact on a Windows machine you can save yourself a lot of
trouble by purchasing our $5 serial interface (allows you to program
from a serial port, and converts DB-9 to the BS1 3-pin connection) along
with our latest version of the Stamp compiler.

The best part of the new compiler is that it gives you the memory map
function that used to be available only to the BS2 family.

the parrallel port, thats my printer port, right?

usually hooked up to the parallel port? There are boards today which
have some additional circuitry to
allow to connect a BS1 to a serial interface, but the standard super
carrier is still using the parallel port (using J3, see schematic at
http://www.parallax.com/dl/docs/prod/schem/supercarrierbd.pdf)
for BS1 as far as I know.
