here is what's happening, you fire off your timer, instantly the value of i reaches 64 in the timer tick handler. after that completes it continues on the following line where you have a "<=" the equals part of this is satisfied because the value is 64. since you never increment anymore at this point you have what is known as a "forever loop" and it just keeps right on going lol.
