Again, this was with the >protected mode libraries for OS/2 1.3 running under OS/2 2.0. Thanks for trying it. I tried the same program and it crashed 2.0 but 1.3 survives - so it seems to be specific to my hardware. I think I will report it to IBM. It seems weird that a simple program crashes 2.0 but not DOS. > >Gary Hennigan >+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=++=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= >+= PhD Student, Computational Electromagnetics | Member: Utilitarian += >+= New Mexico State University | .signature club += >+= email: ghenniga@NMSU.Edu += > >
