I'll check all my solders then try the bootload if that fails.

I did unplug and replug without waiting before I knew how important that was so perhaps I corrupted the chip that way.

Never done the chip programming before but I can handle it. Already have aurduino11. I need a parallel programmer though. Can this be done from a powerbook with no serial port? USB? I will pick up either parts or a new programmer tomorrow. If I need a serial port I guess I will have to use the old G3.

I'm not clear where to hook up the programmer though. do I need to solder some jumpers? Are there instructions somewhere. I will compile all of this for the Wiki If you (or kevin? who dat?) can point me in the right direction with the programmer to guino. It's one of the spiffie kits BTW.

Thanks a bunch.
