    CocaColaKid,

    I have seen this problem once some time ago.

    The cause was a bad PCB.
    (see attachment)

    Take a Magnifying Glass and inspect your PCB.

    Other possible causes:

    If you have your PIC or Crystal on a Socket, it could be a bad socket.

    Also people have been reporting similar problems with Breadboards.
    (Search the Forum for "Breadboard")

    And last but not least:
    The Crystal itself, have you tried a different brand?
