To start, go Download the Latest Daily Build to your PC.

CHIRP is designed to work with a great number of PCs.

For CHIRP to recognize what radio you have you need to Download Image from Radio to CHIRP to set up the initial image.

Now you can start entering data for your radio.

When finished, then you can upload the new template image to your radio.

Obviously you can’t do this part until your cable arrives.

 

While you are waiting for your cable to arrive, read the Drivers page thoroughly at Miklor.com

The biggest problem most people run into is not running the proper drivers when using a generic programming cable.

If the wrong driver is installed, it will not work. For XP you need Prolific 2.0.2.1

Hope this helps.
