Ok, so there seems to be that option also ... I need to visit an optician
Now when I tried your code with your config, that option checked, the MCLR did not exist as expected and PORTA.2 worked as earlier, however, it turned out that it kills now my USB port. That is strange indeed??? It says ding-dong, dong-ding a few times although that the cable is plugged just ones to PIC. What is this indicating? I have the feeling that those ding-sounds coming from "nowhere" has something to do with the dieing USB port, but what, that something I can't explain.

What in your the configuration could invoke that port-killing behavior when my configuration (USBmystery2.jpg) did not do that with your code? So, as long as I do not have your config I can not see what it might be, what difference could cause this behavior to kill the USB port. On the other hand, you can see my configuration as a jpg, so could you Darrel please try to see if there is something ... something strange, something odd or anything weird or something that one could suspect.... What is the difference between these two configurations?

This is annoying when the error source seems to be buried so deep that one have to dig until the ports of inferno...
