Help!  I'm ready to axe the computer.

I'm writing a delphi program to handle a scsi tape drive
using the ASPI driver under windows 3.1.  Although I'm
following the recommendations and using GlobalAlloc,
GlobalLock, and GlobalPageLock for all my buffers,
I'm still getting fatal GPF's.  Is there any suggestions?
What is the difference between this method and GetMem or
GetSeg?

How do you debug this?  When I step through things I get
no errors.  But running gives me random errors that usually
bring the whole system crashing down.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ken VanCouvering
