External resonator help

simple test program

TEST:
HIGH PORTB.1
PAUSE 1000
LOW PORTB.1
PAUSE 1000
GOTO TEST

The light should turn on and off in 1 sec intervals.

Please post your complete code with the configs so we can see what you got.

That works but personally I like to increase the time if you are doing a visual on/off led measurement, if you measure on/off cycles over a period of say one or two minutes you can average a more precise result. That is just me though.

ok but that is not what i'm looking for. mine wasn't off by milliseconds it was off by seconds like 3 or 4 seconds on and 3 or 4 seconds off. but once i installed a 4MHz resonator in it worked just fine.

Now back on track, can someone help/explain the config of chips to me? I dont mean what they do that much i understand. I mean how to get them into my program or setting them someplace else.
