Stephen, While I didn't specifically design the Movie Machine to run under OS/2, I'm surprised it crashed. It is written is Visual Basic which is supposed to run under OS/2. However, in the program, I did make a Windows API call, SNDPLAYSOUND, that might not be supported under OS/2. OS/2 emulates all the basic Windows API functions, except it might not support the multimedia functions. I got the SNDPLAYSOUND function from the MMSYSTEM.DLL which came with Windows 3.1. Microsoft may not have allowed IBM to include that dll in OS/2. Best regards, Eric
