Thanks a lot... i didn't realise that the actually chip was a clone I thought it was just the board. I downloaded the source from Github (here: GitHub - dbuezas/lgt8fx: Board Package for Logic Green LGT8F328P LGT8F328D and LGT8F88D) and dropped it into the Arduino/Hardware folder and once i'd set a few configurations in the IDE everything works nicely.
Much appreciated.
