I am having the following trouble :

I programmed the PIC16C74 with a VERY
simple test program on a VERY simple
testboard. I use a 2Mhz crystal in XT
mode (C values according to the data
sheet values, 22pF).
The trouble is that when I turn on the
power and hold the reset low, I see a
nice sine wave at the CLKOUT pin. When
I release the reset button however, it
seems to disappear.

What could be wrong ?

(By the way, how sensitive is the PIC
to electrostatic disharge...)
