Programing Atmega8

[superben51]

I need to program an atmega8 for a project I'm working on but I keep getting error messages. Here's list of the programs and the error messages from each one.

avrdude gui v0.2.0: can't open device "-U": The system cannot find the file specified.

AVR8 Burn-o-mat v2: Cannot run program "C:\avrdude.exe: create process error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

Progisp v1.7.2: Chip enable program error

Is this a problem with my hex file or my programmer?

What programmer are you using? Regardless, I recommend running avrdude from the command line.

Got it working, I think my bread board was bad all along. Just soldered it all up and BOOM! it works
