I connected vss, vdd (5vdc from 7805) and the single led on port A bit 0....set the clock speed to 4mhz and selected "internal" on the config screen. The led is simply dim and does not appear to blink..somewhere in this forum I read that it may be blinking too fast to be visible so I played around a little but the result is the same.

I want to get it right with the simple projects so I can give my lcd project another wack. BTW the LCD project shows only dark boxes on the top row of the lcd and nothing else happens. Im trying to use the internal oscillator of the 16f883 set to 4mhz. Im positive its something Im doing wrong with the physical connections on the project itself...Im either not connecting everything I need to be or my knowledge of oscillators is too limited. Whats the difference between clock out and no clock out? both flowcode and programmer have internal I/O or something to that effect. I know once I get one thing to work I wont have problems from there...PLEASE HELP AND THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!
