I've had a similar problem.  The problem is that Warp4 has a bug that causes 
a TRAP 000D error when something does a multiple file delete with FCBs.  I 
ran into this immediately apon installing Warp 4 on my system.  I was up to 4 
am working on it, and had to dial-a-day because of it.
I finally found that a lot of others had the same problem.  FD gives you the 
option to disable that type of file work (it's an old style of working with 
files) ... and this is what you need to add to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file that is 
used in the session where FD runs (assume AUTOEXEC.BAT unless you set up 
another one.
SET FDOPT=NOFCB
This should take care of the problem.  If you have additional problems beyond 
that, I don't know that I can help much more -- this is what I did to fix my 
problem (my symptoms didn't match yours at first, but as soon as you start FD 
apon rebooting, it would crash...that I had)
Good luck!
