Hello again,

Sorry to put you to all this, Its very much appreciated.

I have run up the circuit as your diagram,
I think I may be on the right trail of the problem.
As you have it it does nothing,
I have to add a pullup 4k7 to the MCLR pin, like on the 16F84 ( I have always done this)

It looks like my programmer isn't set correctly (as you rightly said)
Looks like we've found it... (I do hope this is it)

My programmer is a K149-BC USB programmer, (don't know if you know of it)

I have fuse settings, I don't really know what they do, and the help doesn't really help.

My fuse edit screen has the following.

WDT this is enabled
MCLRE this is disabled ( could it be this....!!!!)
Code protect ROM this is disabled
Bandgap this is set to highest
PWRTE this is enabled (I know what this does)
BODEN this is enabled
Code Protect EEP this is disabled (I know what this does)
Oscillator INTOSC IOGP4 IOGP5 (I know what this does)

Any ideas on the other ones,
I have programmed 16F84's, 16F627's etc all set as default, and these have been fine.


Thanks again,
Cheers
Dave..
