AVR-Chat

Anxious to try the new toys, I tried programming the "LEDs&Switches" 
into the ATMega that came with the stk-500.  When I did this, it 
asked to upgrade the firmware on the stk-500...

After finding a screwdriver (ahem... IC Puller), and removing the 
target and jumpers, I held down the prog button while powering up, 
and it seemed to be programming ok....

Except, I got a "Program Failed" message at the end.  Now AVR 
Studio's avrprog doesn't recognize it...

Hrm... I'm actually not sure if its "all the way" dead -- the status 
sometimes goes red-yellow-green if I reset the pc.

If it matters, I'm using a Belkin USB->serial adapter (which I 
thought would work if it detected the STK firmware rev; stupid 
Toshiba with no serial ports)...

I'll try with a "real" serial port Friday...
Any tips on getting this back to working (or at least to where it 
was)?

Thanks,
Thor Johnson
