   Very interesting ...

   Today I repeated what I did on my semi-retired machine and got a 
similar failure messages to the above.  That was with ODIN 20020420 and 
w420020822.  I tried ODIN 20020822 and with kernel 14.062_W4 (6 Nov 2000 
I think) with no improvment.  The difference in the 
mainboard/CPU/chipset are as follows:
newer current machine:
   neither win32k.sys loads
   AOpen MX59 Pro II/AMD K6-II 450 (running @ 400 MHz)/VIA MVP4 chipset
   ATX form factor

semi retired machine:
   ODIN 20020420 win32k.sys loads fine
   ?? name mb/686L P 166/Intel PCI SB8237 chipset
   AT form factor

   On both I have problems with Real & Acrobat.

   What's the details of your hardware?
