Thanks for the quick reply henrik, I understand I didnt turn on the timer, when I started, I just copied darrels blinky program and it worked, changing the 31 to 30 made it not work, is it because that 1 ends up being the bit that turns timer on? so...

if i want to use the whole numbers I would set it up like this?


Code:
T1CON = $30
T1CON.0 = 1
