				| My code contains 3 timer interrupts routine and #int_TBE ,#int_RDA routines(total 5) . It is very interesting to me that if I use the #device *=16 statement then someting is going wrong in my software . But, I ignore the this line . Result is perfect. I made this operation three times, I always saw the same result. Especially, problem occurs timer0_int that is not calling. I used the 16f877 and CCS C 3.221. |

				| Your code will run more slowly when you use the #device *=16 directive because then the compiler has to do double-precision math for pointers instead of single precision.  Maybe the extra execution time is messing up your program? |

On the 16XXX devices, you definitely need the #device *=16 statement when your program grows. w/o it, jumps and braches will get wacky, just like you're noticing. |
