I need some real help with my pocket programmer!

I just can't figure it out! This is the second one they sent me and it just doesn't make any sense to me.
If I do a blank check all 4 of my chips are blank, including the original one that still has the aluminum sticker on it!! Then I load a file, and try to program the chip and there is always an error. So what so I do, are there any other settings to deal with??
What about the file begin and end addresses and the start and end eprom addresses. As you can tell this is the first time I'm doing this and I just started the TPI swap tonight!

Make sure that the computer you are using has a blank config.sys and autoexec.bat. You shouldn't be loading any TSR's at all when you go to use the programmer.

I'm sure some of you had to have had some kind of trouble with this thing, I can't be the only one. As far as autoexec and config.... they're both empty and the parallel port is sset to normal.
