Did you try looking at those? Also, 33MHz does not sound right but then you don't say what processor you're using so who knows. You need to find the bus freq used by the cpu/system. Try looking for the freq of the processor's SYSCLK input. Then you probably have to divide that by 4 to get the frequency that the decrementer runs at. That's the value that you should use for the 'freq' variable in the example code you included in your email. Mark
