What do you mean by "MCLR tied high" ?
No resistor? did you directly connect it to Vdd?
Also, BOD_OFF and VBOR may be having a conflict associated with your MCLR.
Did you check the data sheet for it?

MCLR tied high through 10K resistor - also tried 4.7K.
Different combinations of the @ device tried.
Been going through the data sheets all morning.
After all that I did figure out how to make the chip work. I'm using ICSP and after the chip is programmed nothing works including the oscillator until the power supply is cycled off and back on. I've worked with a couple of dozen different types of PICs and this is the first time I have encountered this.

mwhatley, Do you have a scope? If so put it on the power supply and see if it is comming up within 100 Ms. If not that may be the problem. Also I would shut off the BOD or set it for the lowest setting. I would also lower the caps around the xtal to about 18 Pf.
