I ran the "blink" sketch on the chipkit Max32, and got the error message shown below--the sketch failed to compile. It looks like there are software library problems or path problems (this a very long path if it's accurate)--the program apparently couldn't find a particular file. Any thoughts on this?

Make sure you select the Max32 from the boards list.

I tried both max32 Chipkit Max32 and Chipkit Max32 for USB serial--I got the same error in both situations.

Can you Hold down Shift and press the Verify button? That should give you the full output from the build process. You can then post the output here.

Using ChipKit Max 32 after just plugging board into USB cable:

I solved this problem. It turns out if the mpide-0022-windows-20110822.zip zip file is unzipped at the C:\mpide-0022-windows-20110822 level, it works properly. I originally unzipped it at a level much farther down the subfolder chain, and this is where it didn't work.

It really would have helped if the documentation would have made this clear.!!!!!
