My BASIC Stamp seems like it is not reciving enough power even when a new battery is being used. Also some of my programs work while others don't even when the program is correct. I need help.

    Please give us some examples on what your referring to?· I recommend a wall mount power supply, it insures that you have the power needed in most cases.

    Halo,

    ·· In the future please try to use a subject that conveys what you need help with, instead of just, "Help".

    well and example of the program problem I might program a servo and control it with pushbuttons. When I run it, it works but if I rerun the program later it will not work. That is what i meant with the program problem.

    If the batteries are re-chargeable that might be your problem.· These run at 1.2V instead of 1.5V and could be browning out the Stamp.· Not enough details to really make a good guess.

    I have to agree with Chris.· Do you have a voltmeter?· This will allow you to trouble shoot the problem.
