I managed to install XP on the old PC. It had to be the oldest version of XP I could find. The latest version won't install on a 1.2 Giga Byte hard disk. I won't connect the PC to the web so it is save to use.
I was afraid it would be hard to make the PIC JDM programmer work on XP. Fortunately it worked fine. The program I use is WIN PIC. It can be configured to use win API calls for accessing the serial port so I won't get port access problems. However I had to set win98 compatibility mode. Without this setting I got system errors.
I'll make a in circuit programmer. It will be the SERPIC programmer designed by David Tait. This programmer is also supported by WINPIC.
