I am having a similar experience.  At whenever I do something with BASH
and it wants to give me an error message it locks my system up.  For
example I accidentally typed .. with out the cd.  Bash told me that was
a directory (duh!) and then it locked my system up.  This has happened a
couple other times, but I forgot what I was doing.  I started using
command.com again.  I like bash (it runs slow in Win95 though).  Did
anyone send you anymore information about this?
