Have you tried banging it really hard on the table?

Er, no.

Can't understand it.

Might be a leadframe problem with the chip*.

We shall see.

*Which would have been distinctly second hand, having suffered the attentions of the esteemed customers in the PIC assembly programming sessions, I suspect.

[zeitghost]

Bored.

Now.

As a warning to the wise, I had lentil soup again last evening.

<pffffffft>

Bugger.

I think I just followed through.

Got an e-mail from estate agents regarding our tenants, they want to put up curtains in the bedrooms despite the fact there are already made to measure black out blinds in place.

FFS!

[zeitghost]

Stone me, it's a hive of activity in here this morning.

Haven't had time to <pfffffft> much.

I think this is where you are going wrong. The first second it doesn't work properly you need to bang it really hard on the table and shout at it until it knows whose in charge.

Failing that, get a man in and say you dropped it.

The odd thing was that it appeared to be working, the crystal oscillator was oscillating, it was doing the key scan, the switches where working, but nowt was coming out on the pin that drives the LED.

Can't have been a bad contact in the socket, coz there was nothing on the pin itself.

Which is why I think there's sommat up inside the chip.
