Neat explanation to me. i'm waiting for some PIC18F8720 even if not recommended for new design) and some PIC18F8722 as suggested.

I saw some Errata one the 8720 so far... maybe a cause but at this point unsure... so no flame please

Ii have ton's of assumptions but i keep'em for me now.. just to keep things quiete.

I have a stupid test to suggest... it's a test ONLY... how about using ON INTERRUPT to see if there's any progress.. from what i feel, as now the snip we have shouldn't have so much problem to work with... if there's progress... an ASM file is still generated... NO?

Forget me if i'm wrong.
