Hi,

Well two things you might try, first load in the application program PicPro form that disc, start the program up and plug in the programmer.... what happens ?

Also open up windows Device Manager and see if anything else is showing up in the Serial or USB devices relating to the FT232 or if it has a yellow ! icon against it.
 

please tell me if this product is fine, and recommended to buy (+10$ over the old unknown version):

Help is available for such a product?
also, can I operate it on Windows8?
 

I would recommend avoiding all ICD2 clones, especially concerning future compatibility.

The genuine Microchip ICD2 is NOT compatible with the newer MPLABX IDE, therefore neither are the clones.

I have upgraded all my ICD2s to ICD3s as a result of this incompatibility.

The following programmer/debuggers are compatible with the newer MPLABX IDE:

PICkit2
PICkit3
ICD3
RealICE

Considering Microchip is steadily phasing MPLAB out and if your system is running Windows 8 as an OS, you would be well advised to purchase one of the programmer/debuggers listed above or a compatible high quality clone.

:shock:

You probably could have bought a genuine Microchip PICkit2 for what you paid for it.

Return it.

And buy a PICkit2.
