If there was some bizarre interaction, then this would be described in the datasheet or the errata. Think about it. The UART and timer 0 are two independent hardware modules. They would be expected to each do their thing independently unless somethin= g was deliberately done to connect them somehow. Since there is no such connection, not even any reason to suspected such a connection, what you're asking makes no sense. It's like asking if your car will still run when th= e bedroom window is closed. ******************************************************************** Embed Inc, Littleton Massachusetts, http://www.embedinc.com/products (978) 742-9014.
