Subject: DR DOS rebooting problem

OpenDOS is rebooting itself whenever I run multiple copies of a very
simple 32-bit program. This test program simply advances a counter and
displays each result in a continuous loop (the counter is a long and
resets itself at 1000000). If I run 3 or more instances of this program
the system reboots itself, typically within one or two minutes. When
only one or two instances are ran, the system never reboots itself. The
only change made to taskmgr.ini was to set Foreground=1.

The program uses dos4gw.exe and was compiled/link via the Watcom C++
compiler.

Any ideas or thoughts as to what might be causing this would be much
appreciated.

Tim
