This is the first time I have every tried to program an AVR. Right now I am trying to flash the cam with the embedded code. I'm in the dir with the code and I type the following:

C:\pfm\AVRCam>avrdude -p atmega8 -P com9 -c stk200 -U flash:w:AVRcam.hex

Then I get this:"
avrdude: can't open device "giveio"

avrdude: failed to open parallel port "com9" "

I know I have the right port. Beyond that I'm clueless. Help would be much appreciated. Feel free to be as basic as possible.

Hmm...the com9 seems suspicious. Com9 should be a serial port, and the AVRcam programming connector is the 2x5 parallel port STK200/300 compatiable cable. Thus, the typical port used is LPT1, which is the parallel port.

What programming cable are you using? When you say you know you have the right port, what do you mean?
