Do you mean the PIC is pulling 200mA? That's about 190mA too much if all you're driving is an LED! Do you have at least a 0.1uF capacitor near the PIC? (between 0V & +5V) Put a 47uF one there too. > > RC connected and it's working ? > >I was under the impression when I specify RC Oscillator, that uses the >internal oscillator of the PIC, so I do not need to use an external >oscillator..

No, the 16F877 has no *internal* RC mode. You have to add a resistor and capacitor as per the data sheet to set the frequency in RC mode.
