My design is based on spaceman spiff's C64-keyboard with an ATMEGA 8. The hardware layout is identical with the only exception that I use a 12 MHz erxternal clock (I had this one lying around).

For testing the hardware, I compiled and flashed the original C-64-keyboard sources supplied by Spiff. When I connect the device, Windows XP (home edition) detects a USB-HID and then tells me that the device could not be started (code 10).

The USB device name is recognized and displayed correctly by Windows, so I tend to think that the hardware itself is working. I'm new to the USB topic and right now a bit lost, so I would be thankful if someone could help me out.

sometimes, you get the bear...

...after removal of all debug routines from the code and a CLEAN build, the thing suddenly works! I'll try it now on several computers, just to be sure...
