I think you'll find that the problem is with the screen not updating.
Despite Charles' best arguments, Irex is still a DOS program running in a
DOS window and Windows doesn't update the screen as fast as the timer
display. This problem is made worse by having other DOS windows open. I
just don't worry about it. The only difference it makes is that the CPU
load is (significantly) higher than it would be if Irex were a true windows
program.
