I, too have had VB create executables that crashed the system.  I don't
know the exact cause (most seemed to happen after I did some work on the
program in development mode and then created the executable).  I have
also seen problems after VB messes up the palette on the 256 color photo
I have as a backdrop on the screen.

I have found a solution that works for me -- exit windows, load windows,
start VB and load my project, then make the executable.
