When I try to fread 64K or more in Borland C the PC locks up. This occurs with
all memory models and with version 2.0 and 3.0. Is this serious bug fixed in
version 3.1 ? How do I fix it, without the obvious, but unsatisifactory, solution of reading the data in chunks smaller the 64K ?

Thanks in advance
