I was wondering what i had to set my timers to, to have interrupts every minute to update the screen with the temperature. Im using a 20Mhz clock and whichever timer (Timer0/1/2)..whatever suggestions are appreciated.. If there is any other information that i forgot, just let me know Thanks

You can insert some delay like 200ms then loop it 4 times. But if you really need precise timing then you need the interrupt.
