help needed with microcontroller newbie and simulation software

[yohanevindra]

ok... so i tried testing OS out i ran this sample program just to test the LEDs

<CODE>
list p=18F452
#include <p18F452.inc>

movlw 0xFF
movwf PORTB

</CODE>

is there something wrong with my code?or something wrong wit my OS specs?

I think Oshonsoft is a good simulator, Although i had problems with delay routines. In my opinion Proteus(isis) is the best program on the market.

Proteus is not exactly cheap. You could buy a complete PIC development kit for less.

Well you should look for 18F programming examples. You need to set the TRIS registers and may have to disable built in peripherals before it'll work.

Learning to read a datasheet isn't optional.

Yes your right, maybe the demo version or proteus lite might be useful.
