- I bought Millie's Math House as a gift for my nephews. It works for a
- while and then crashes. After this initial crash it will not work at
- all, bombing after its musical intro. Reinstalling (which takes a
- while--four disks of compressed material) merely repeats this cycle.
-
- This happens on an IIsi with 5 megs of RAM running 6.0.7. Doesn't seem
- to matter whether we use multi or uni-finder. We tried a virgin system
- to no avail. I didn't diddle with the recommended 2M memory partition
- and there always sufficient memory available
-
- Tech support for MMH was not much help. They suggested trashing the
- preferences file and nixing all inits. They also said that MMH just
- crashes for some people and they don't know why.
-
- All this is too bad because when it does work my nephews are delighted.
- It really is a nice program
-
- Anyone out there got an answer or care to commiserate?
