Internal oscillator please help

[timbash]

I've been trying for a day and a half now to get my PIC to do something I finally have it running but it is running slow. If I put pause 1000 in the code it basically stops. When I do pause 1 it runs at about 4Hz but speeds up if I put my finger near the pic. Whatever changes I make to Internal oscillator speeds it stays at the same speed. It even runs if I set it for external oscillator. I don't understand. Here's the code I have.


@ Device PWRT_OFF
@ Device MCLR_OFF
@ Device INTRC_OSC
@ Device BOR = 0
@ Device Debug_Off

OSCCON = %01110000
OPTION_REG = %11111111
TRISB = %00101010



Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

RTDS is the answer...

Refer To Data Sheets

Sorry, 16F819

I've been over the datasheets time and time again and cannot figure this out.

Thanks

That's a big red flag there. Are you 100% sure you're even programming it?

If you set config options for an external crystal or resonator, program the part,
and it's still running, you really do have a problem.

Post all your code & let us know which programmer you're using. That would really
help.

This is all I have, at this point I was just trying to get the thing to do something in this case the leds on the different ports do switch on and off.

@ Device PWRT_OFF
@ Device MCLR_OFF
@ Device INTRC_OSC
@ Device BOR = 0
@ Device Debug_Off

OSCCON = %01110000
OPTION_REG = %11111111
TRISB = %00101010


loop:

TRISB = %00101010
Pause 1
PortB = 1
TRISB = %11010101
Pause 1
PortB = 1
TRISB = %00101010
Pause 1
goto loop

End
