PIC32MX440F256 and LCD.i2c anyone ?

[Newcomer]

I have tried the file LCD.i2c together with PIC32MX440F256 without any success. The LCD-display is lit but no contact with it. When using IDE V11 in a Win 10 PC it does not compile, however in an old Win XP PC with the X4-EASYPACK rev.999 IDE it compiles and loads OK but no response from the LCD.

The LCD together with PCF8574 works OK with the Arduino using adress 0x24 which of course has been tested.

IDE V12 has NOT been tested because it stopped working after the latest Win 10 update! Has anyone been lucky with LCD.i2C and PIC32X440F256 ?

Regards,

Obviously no one in the whole world has solved the I2C-matter !

How about IDE V12 that worked OK until one of the last updates of Win 10 came ? Now only V11 works !

When compiling even the "bare minimum" example the following comes up in the "submit bug" window:

When trying to submit this it says "No userbane". The word userbane is not to be found in my wordbook !

Windows kept breaking things so I moved to Linux.

Thanks guys for the information. However installing Linux Debian and then Pinguino IDE seems to require a degree in computer science. Nothing for a guy without any computer education and born long before TV came into our lives.

Amazing that Olimex that sells the cards seems to have no software responsibility.

They make hardware. If it's faulty they'll replace/fix it.

They didn't write Windows which is the cause of the pain.

You could complain to Mickeysoft but good luck if you try. (I did, years ago when a developer on their list and it was a waste of time.)
