In general you should be able to step through you code unless you hit one of these conditions: - code strongly dependent on varying external signals or on a timer; however in this case you should be able to step through the code, although the flow may be somewhat different from 'run' mode, because some variables are changing not the way they are supposed to. - an interrupt is continuously triggered by the timer or any other external signal and this would always take you to the isr whenever you hit a breakpoint and try to step into the code - watchdog circuitry enabled; this won't allow you to stop execution.
