I have built megadrum, ı programmed the PIC18F2550 as 12 mhz, I am sure that it's ok. Progrraming was succesfully.

for loading firmware to "Atmega32A", When I power the device while holding left, I see nothing on LCD. Where am I wrong?
Please, dont show me FAQ link, I cant find my answer at there. I have been copping with this proplem for two weeks, I will flip out, nearby. Plese help me. Is there inconsistency between my components? Should I program with ISP connection because of ATmega32A?

My components:
ATmega32A with 16 mhz xtal
PIC18F2550 with 12 mhz xtal
6N138 optocoupler
"1620A-17 LCD" (my seller said that it was compatible hd44780)

Is there inconsistency between my components?

Atmega chips come blank from Atmel without any bootloader. You have to program it first via the ISP cable.

ok I'm trying to flash. Thank you Dmitri.

didnt work. I tried to programme atmega32 with ISP in "ponyprog", Writing stops at %60's.
What do you think about this? I know neither how to use Ponyprog nor programming atmega32.

I'm programming atmel first time. In ponyprog, I choose "megadrum32_16_32_20091217.hex" file, is it true for ATmega32A?

I've never used Atmega32A but it should work. Search the forum, there are a lot of posts about programming Atmega even recently, e.g. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2338
