Hi,
i have found the problem.
this config does not run:
Code:
FWDTEN_ON/*watchdog timer*/ & WINDIS_OFF/*windowed wdt*/ & FWPSA_PR32/*watchdog prescalar*/ & WDTPS_PS256/*watchdog postscalar*/

and this config runs well:
Code:
FWDTEN_ON/*watchdog timer*/ & WINDIS_ON/*windowed wdt*/ & FWPSA_PR32/*watchdog prescalar*/ & WDTPS_PS256/*watchdog postscalar*/

Thanks for this nice bootloader

Thanks, I cannot why your solutions works. Can you?

Hi,
I just experimented with the config bits. And now, it seems to be running.
But I don't know exactly why.
