- Ben;
- Are you a legal owner of BC? The instructions are right there in your
- user guide. Did you create a proper project file and the swapping may
- be a badly fragmented and possibly full disk. Also, what debug options
- have you turned on? Have you told it to use the proper lib's for the
- memory model? Is it optimizing properly and removing any dead code?
- All this stuff is in the user manual. You'll get the most help there
- and find out some stuff possibly you didn't know about that superior
- compiler and development platform. I prefer it over MSC 7 myself as
- I've found MSC's resulting code sizes and execution speed are bad in
- comparison.
