I just got a Arduino Duemilanove with a ATMEGA 386, and i was using the IDE that is provided and alot of the premade examples didnt work when the circut was correct. I was wondering if this is because the code itself is wrong or.....

Is that unreal? :slight_smile: (Sorry, couldn't help it!)

It would be helpful if you could state what examples didn't work and how they didn't work. It is possible that some examples no longer work with newer versions of the IDE.

Welcome to Arduino! :slight_smile:

Here is a example that doesn't work:

From the Reference:
Example

#include <LiquidCrystal.h>

LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 10, 5, 4, 3, 2);

void setup()
{
lcd.print("hello, world!");
}

void loop() {}

That should be corrected to:
LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2);

Then will the reference work with the tutorial, http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/LiquidCrystal.

But when I tried to correct it I got a :
Insufficient privileges to perform action. :sunglasses:
