Anyone using port F & G as general outputs?

I cannot get these ports to work correctly as general I/O's.

I have set all the LCDSe to 0 (set pins as I/O based on DS)

They always act funny like not really true in/outs.

Some clear some do not, none of them work as inputs etc.

I assuemd it is something to do with the LCD module stuff.

I turned it all off but these ports still acts weird.

I have tried setting bit, seetin whole port, setting tris, setting single tris etc.
Nothing changes.

Can anyone simulate this?

All the other ports and pins work just like expected but wehn I try it on those ports it goes goofy.
