That problem is now behind me. It had nothing to do with the DeskWriter 550C driver, or for that matter with Symantec at all. It was a bug in the MemCheck libraries that I use — they redefine memset() and all other memory access functions to allow me to track memory leaks, improper use of memory, etc. Turns out it didn't handle the 4-byte ints properly and was still running in 2-byte mode, whick led me on a wild goose chase. – Burt
