I have downloaded a simple simmulator fo 8085 kit from http://www.vikaspatel.org/ ,which can progrmme in hex only ( It has a-z and 0-9 keys with reset,execute etc. keys) Now I have all hex codes for all memnomics but I don't know how to start, I mean how to find address of registers and all that begaining stuff, I tried a few example but they did'nt work can any one suggest any link from where I can get any tutorial on how to use the same kind (HEX programme) of kit and begain my first programme!!

If you don't have a specific reason to choose the 8085 as the microprocessor to study other than the convenience of a simulation tool, then I would recommend you go with another device that is more currently available. The AVR or the PIC microntrollers have free tools that you can be used in simulation mode. By learning to program either of these devices, you will be able to apply what you have learned to a microcontroller that is not obsolete.

The path name is too long. Save your project in a folder on the root directory such as C:\First Project, that will solve your problem. MPLAB, irritatingly, does that kind of thing.
