If you are using graphics modes from at least 640x480, or myabe 512x384, never tried it, that is the problem. If you know you are going to be switching out, press ALT-ENTER so it says the program can only be run in the full screen. Do your Windows thing and go back, pressing alt-enter again. If Windows just pops up some dialog for some reason such as it wants to ask you if it's ok to keep processing, then you're in trouble. It's not a DJGPP bug - Descent 2, Quake, and Warcraft2, all high res games, crash as well. OK, Quake is a bad example, it WAS written in DJGPP. Workaround : play using mode 13h or mode-x (not very useful, but it does work). Michael N.
