>>It's odd that a bare bones config does the same. Does "bare bones" mean the same to you as it does to me? (Brian and I differ slightly on this one.) It helps if you have DOS 6. If so, boot up with the F5 function key trick -press it once when you see the "Starting MS DOS…" message.<< Yep, I'm doing it that way. (I've also tried it the other way, like it says in that text file you guys always upload) >>Go to your DOS directory, run SCANDISK or CHKDSK /F in all the directories used by 3DS.<< What exactly would I be looking for by doing this? >>Start 3D Studio – I don't think the mouse is needed for this diagnostic approach. You can <Q>uit and <Y>es to get out by keyboard.<< OK.. I think I can get around by using the keyboard.. >>Has 3D Studio been changed in any way (e.g. running CFig386)? It might be worth while reinstalling.<< I've tried reinstalling about 3 times.. no change there. >>Also, are you doing anything special with Liquid Speed or the Vibrant drivers?<< I'm not running Liquid Speed, and I'm using the Vibrant drivers for the Diamond Stealth 64, using the new STLBIOS.EXE from Vibrant's BBS. (I have a Diamond Stealth 64 Video VRAM)
