maybe i can try the RCD programmer?

problem is, it only got 18pins... i don't really know which pins to connect to my PIC16F874A which has 40 pins...?

I don't think anyone "likes" the JDM, it's just cheap & simple so it's popular. Problem is it can be tough to get running on fast computers with a modern OS.

The RCD is actually a step backwards from the JDM.

PGM should be GND when using a cheap LVP type programmer, with a HVP programmer (much better) you just treat it like an I/O pin.
