FWIW, I cannot reproduce your problem on my DOS machine (a P166
running DOS 5.0).  I tried that both in an optimized configuration
(QEMM 8.03 with SmartDrv and a large RAM disk) and in vanilla
configuration (no disk cache and no device drivers/TSRs).  The program
worked in both cases.

I tried to run it several times one after the other.  I understand
that in your case, it doesn't need too many attempts to crash.  So it
seems like it doesn't happen to me.
