Paul,

The newest DOS executable has begun crashing almost immediately here.  The
first few times it gave errors similar to the following...

1.  QEMM Exception #13 at 6620:FFFF, error code: 0000
    AX=0925 BX=6F77 CX=6B72 DX=7720 SI=7469 DI=2068 BP=6168
    DS=6472 ES=6177 SS=393C SP=1E3A Flags=7782
    Instruction: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

Different registers each time, but the same instruction (00 x 15 times).

2. Then it crashed with a Divide Error.

3. Then it hung the machine completely, requiring a full power down.

All reproducable instantly.  Enter a message area, start scanning through
the messages with the arrow key, and poof!

Conclusion?  She's fucked Jim.

Regards, Bill
