Ok here goes...  I've written a Tank Wars Clone that is over 80%
complete.  The game so far works on my own computer (almost perfectly
except for the bugs that I know about).  But the game doesn't work on
any others. I've zipped it right as I checked it again on my own
computer (by unzipping the zip into a different folder and running from
there and it worked good). By doesn't work I mean that:  You select your
Tanks and give yourselves names and etc.  but as soon as it gets to
drawing the battle field it gives either a GPF or a Page Fault...  and
the bad thing is that I can't duplicate the error on my computer.  And
this is about as far as I can narrow the fields down.  oh yeah as I have
written before, the platform that I run it on doesn't seem to matter.  I
have Windows 98, one of my friends has Windows 95 OSR2 and the other has
Windows 98 also. 

The specifications of my computer:
Pentium II 350
ATI Rage Pro (8MB)
64 MB of RAM

Specifictions of a sample test computer:
Pentium III 500
Diamond Viper 770 Ultra
128 MB of RAM

These are the only things that I can see relating to the bug.

My program runs under VESA 2.0 mode (640X480X8bit).
