Hi there!

I'm having a "little" problem with my new Pc and Excel 4.0

My machine:

486 DX50
256 Kb cache
8Mb Ram
210 Mb Hd
Dos 5.0
Windows 3.1
Excel 4.0
Stacker 2.0 (<= can this be the problem???)

Excel used to work fine with my old 386sx 16, but now I get these
"Excel caused a general protection fault in module Excel.exe in .........".
Then Excel terminates, and zap....! I've had this error in some of the other
applications too (Calculator, Winclock etc), but Excel is "the favourite".

My suspision is that it's my Stacker 2.0 (both Windows and Excel are on the
stacker-drive) that causes these problems. I'm now waiting for the new version of
Stacker (3.0). But if these problems continues, I'm freaking out!!!

Is there anybody with similar experiences or can anybody tell me what I'M
doing wrong????????


Please, please, please answer me....
