- That is really wierd. I have a 386/33 system, but either than that,
- our systems are identical. Try either a: reinstalling, or b: getting a new
- copy. (most stores will do an even exchange for the same thing.) Also,
- what type of memory do you have on-line, and how much is avaiable to
- programs?
