Running Windows98. All works well with original RCX firmware and NCQ
programs. Was anxious to try out pbFORTH as an alternative!!

Unzipped pbforth111.zip and used RCX Command Center to download
pbForth.srec. Progress window looked good UNTIL the end. Then a
message pops up on my PC -> "Firmware Download failed, try again,..etc".
No "4th" displayed on RCX, just familiar display indicating no firmware
has been loaded.

Had NO problem loading original RCX firmware, Firm0309.lgo, with same
configuration!! Placement of IR tower was OK.

(...) I've only verified pbForth being uploaded using the commandline version of NQC. (...) This is good. Has anyone else out there tried RCXCC to upload the pbForth firmware????
