Sang,
I'm running 199n/D and am having the exact same problem. Also, when I
bring up the prefrences panel and click on Animation for the screen
update type, then hit OK, the whole system freezes. When I reboot, it
freezes right after the splash screen and I have to re-install it.
I'm booting up with the WIN95 version of Dos, with just a vesa driver,
mouse driver, and himem.sys (4 megs of ram)
The rest is AMAZING work though... Great Job, Ardi!
