vick, I was doing some digging today and found out that you can simulate C code in proteus isis. It actually works out pretty well.
Have a look at this tutorial here. http://smainj.free.fr/tutorial/
Tutorial1.rar contains the flash files, video you can watch in your browser. 7mb's
I think being able to simulate it on the PC makes it a lot easier to make mistakes without wasting time programming the chip and rewiring the hardware. Thought you might like it, maybe you like your way better.
Hey great help man.
thank you
