- 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!
