how to program Atmega8a

[jab99407]

I want to program Atmega8a. I have a 10 pin usb asp programmer. I have window 10 operating system. I want to use a Microchip Studio software IDE. I think I will have to install the GCC compiler with Microchip Studio. Microchip Studio generates hex files for the project.

I don't understand how to burn the generated hex file in the memory of the controller. What software tools would be required.

Depending on quantity.. I use the TL866II.. If the chip is a pdip, it drops right in. Else it comes with a serial connector.
