Hi There
Please help????

I've build the two PC boards complete, received the chip with bootloader from you and I have programmed the USB chip succesfully. Now I am not sure what to do from here. Please remember that I only want to use it from my pc and dont have the LCD, Keyboard connected at all.

It will be much appreciated if someone could help me..

Thanks
Leon

You programmed PIC and you got Atmega already programmed so you don't need to program anything else.

If everything is soldered and connected right than yes.

I connected the MD to my pc via USB, and then it showed that is picking up a new audio devive, bu when i unplugged it, it didn't detect it anymore, so I can't get my pc to see the MD

Check for bad soldering, shorts, breaks. If there were shorts you might have damaged your PIC. I once half fried one PIC - I could still program it but it didn't talk over USB.
