Problem with the counting external clock pulse

[nehallove]

Hi everyone,

I face a weird problem. I have this piece of code to count external clock pulses.
When I first time run in debugger mode with setting breakpoint in while loop end; it gives around variable 27000-32000 count more.

My external clock is clean, and I use port A3 to external trigger to oscillator.
But after stopping first time I loop around it gives me accurate number.
If someone can throw light on this one it would be a great help.

Thanks
nehal

It sure sounds like a debugger problem. Program a real chip and I bet the problem goes away.
