*sigh*... (dig, dig, dig... aha, here it is, the one that has ELVIS IS KING
stamped on the back!... insert floppy... unzip 1.64 source...)

Diagnosis: you have "video: bios" in the static file.

Options:
1) don't use "video: bios" in your static file [but presumably you have it
   there for a reason]
2) upgrade to 1.65 to get the bug fix
3) add ', "BIOS"' to the end of the definition of types[] in memory() in
   dos.c, but presumably if you had the source you'd have fixed it already.
