I'v set all the ports as outputs. I think the problem is solved :) thank yo=
u all, but to undestand why this happens (aka why does only the pwm module =
is affected??) can i have some reference? i don't know exactly what to goog=
le :)

Yes, i decided to disable MCLR because i think i'll use it, short of pins ;=
