[SOLVED] Weird problem flashing PICs over MIDI - can't install MIOS to my MB-6582

Solved - it was the power supply, and presumably a repeated rebooting of the PICs due to undervoltage.  Got a new C64 PSU and everything worked fine - flashed MIOS and then the SID application…  Thanks for the help everyone.

Nice.

I tested the PSUs now in case of noise ratio. I can NOT recommend this cheap China PSU it makes a really loud high noise output but the JAZ PSU doesn’t do this, it’s pretty damn good, I couldn’t recognize that the MbSID is powered with earplugs, just after sending some midi note.

Next I will test the power consumption with 1Core LCD and CS stuff, a slave Core and 4 SIDs.
