Can't update firmware to my USBPICprog-programmer. Everytime I try it program says: "Bootloader not found..." It does same thing both ways, if I remove Select jumper or try to update in USBPICprog program...Is there any other method to update ???

You may have accidentally removed your firmware. Please remove the "Select" jumper, then unplug and replug your usbpicprog. You should be getting the bootloader firmware now.

No no no no, programmer works really OK but it irritates me that if I use newer versions of program it nags me about old firmware and asks "Do you want to upgrade firmware..." That's why I am trying to UPDATE my firmware :-) Only when I take the Select jumper away or try to update firmware within USBPICprog program that happens (meaning system and program give this announcement "Bootloader...and so on"

OK, maybe it doesn't have bootloader so how can I program that to this programmer? I have another programmer TL866A which I maybe can use to program USBPICprog via ICSP? I really don't exactly remember where I bought this from but I bought this little after this "came to market" or so to say... It is blue PCB with text usbpicprog v0.3 (all components are SMD...)

No, I bought it straight from you if I remember correctly ...And I forgot to mention that when I try either one of those methods Windows gives a warning sound and program says "Bootloader or programmer not found" and the red led is on all the time..

Many thanks, Frans!!! I've found method to program bootloader to my USBPICprog programmer...Didn't realise that I must use P2 for that :-D Now I have WORKING bootloader and newest firmware and software :-D !!! Keep up the good work!!! Are there any further development ( for example AVR support or anything else)?

Did you build your hardware yourself? Or buy it somewhere other than from me? In that case you probably have no bootloader programmed into it at all.
