Keil is not generating the right hex file

Hi all
I've just started using Keil C51. The first thing I did was to try an compile an example which I already had its hex file(this was compiled by Keil as well). the problem is that when I comiled the source code using Keil it compiled and linked fined and generated a hex file, however, this hex file is not working as expected ...
I made sure that I am using the right device and the right configuration.
can anybody help?
Thanks

    You can compile a small program!
    However, you may not be able to run it in some devices - particularly single-chip variants - as clearly described in the limitations page.

    You can still run in the Simulator, though.

    As I keep saying, the first thing you should do - especially as a novice - is to read the uVision Getting Started Guide and work through the example projects in it.

    It's included on the free CD and in the free download.

    This will give you a proper introduction to the tools - rather than just blindly jumping into the deep end!
