#83525 - blow it
Responding to: ???'s previous message
but there is something that makes me wrong , why whenever i write 0's to the port and disable the pullups ,the inputs are working OK !

I saved the schematic and read the saved copy.

If you write 0 to a port pin and connect it directly to 5V (through a key) that pin is blown. Also, if a good port pin is set to 0, nothing can make you read a '1'.

So, based on the above:
What you state is impossible unless the output transistor on that pin is burned off and nothing else happened to the port.
Double check your statement (writing zero and connecting +5 is igniting a fuse).

First: rework the keys to standard (safe) configuration which is pullup resistor (4k7 - 10k to Vcc) and switch between pin and ground. Why, when what you have "works"? because the switch to +5 may make any program error or runaway blow the chip.

Second: take a break, then analyze what you do in a non-hurried way. So far you probably have managed to blow your uC by trying dramatic measures. Anyone I know make more mistakes when hurried than when not.
