I found out the program fails on a Dell XPS T500 (P3 500 Mhz) and Dell XPS
700r
(P3 700 Mhz) booting directly to MS-DOS that comes with Win98se. It works
fine on
a Gateway ~500 Mhz and Compaq with Celeron ~400 Mhz. Any chance someone can
try
it on a Dell machine? Do you need to know hardware chip set or something?
