I stripped the program from registers and interupts-functions.
Build in a hotkey wich can stop the program.
The program still freezes, but I can stop it via the hotkey-function.
Sometimes I get a screen full of colors.
Is the videocard the problem?
It is a NVIDIA GeForce2 MX 200 (HP),
the pc is a hp paviljon 7925.
