ok, this is a pickit 2 clone.

so you should be able to use this application to load hex codes
http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/PICkit%202%20v2.61.00%20Setup%20A.zip
its a very simple application i'm sure you can work it out. (If not post here)

You want to connect the PicKit 2 to that board shown in your picture with the sockets on, the 12f683 should go at the very top of the top right ZIF socket in the picture with the notch on the 12f683 at the top.

top right? my8 pin is lower on the zif. there should be markings. I cant clearly see the board. I have a 40 pin socket so my 8 pin chip starts at center.

thats what i was saying, it sounds like you have the chip in the wrong slot, or backwards
