subject: runtime errors fd2.26

DH> I recently re-insalled my registered verison of FD2.26 for
 DH> DOS. I am running Windows XP w/cable modem. After unpacking
 DH> and running FDSETUP, loading the fossil (BNU), then keep
 DH> getting the following error message at c: prompt:

 DH> "runtime error 200 at 179A:1344"

 DH> FrontDoor just will not fire up. My older 2.12 runs fine
 DH> under XP.

that appears to be the "timing loop" calculation used to
determine the time to wait for delay code in the code library... one
"natural" fix is the following... it should be familiar...

:loop
fd
if errorlevel 200 goto loop


i don't believe that any of the borland timing loop patches can fix this...
its something that joho will have to fix... however, the above should get
you running... i have to do the same thing here in a few of the doorgames
that i run on the bbs...
