Any thoughts?
Just guessing...as usual.

Try reading the PIC and see if that hex matches the hex generated by the assembler. The config part might not be getting programed correctly.

If they are not the same.

Erase all but the chips ID if the EPIC has that setting. Then write to the chip program memory and config settings.
