Well, my daughter spilled water on my computer and now it's dead. sigh I can't look at my program at this point til I recover my hard drive. however I checked the voltage on some of my pins and it would seem that some pins are pulled up which should not be. Is there any chance switching between IDE and Sudio the pin definitions get mixed up? I know it's more likely that I made a mistake in my program, but it was running correctly on a prototype board which was supposed to be identical to my final design. I'll check my program as soon as I can access it.
Also, just to make sure, all the standard pin numbering in IDE still work when I'm programming without the bootloader, correct? Again, I realize it's more likely my mistake...I just want to look at all the possibilities.
