Life was so good, I had such high hopes………. I just bought rel. 3 3ds on Monday and installed it on my 486/66 VLB w/ 32 Mb RAM w/ AMI bios dated 6/10/93 and a 2 Mb Diamond Viper VLB VGA ver. 2.02 and a VLB IDE controller, and typical KB, floppies, HD. ………….the trick to the following is it only happens on exit of the program………… I am receiving the dreaded "QEMM 7.01 exception 13 error"….. and/or a "PharLap error 10051:ran out of machine struct" (?????) The error depends on the exact config that I try. The one common fact is that I cannot exit without the crash. I have tried all of the different Diamond Vibrant drivers and the VESA drivers as well as all of the cfig386 settings I know how to set and I get the same crash situation as I exit. 3ds rel. 2 ran fine with my SONY EVO 9650 and a Diaquest DQ-232 controller, all which have performed flawlessly for the last year. The interesting thing is I still can draw and save and render while in the program, it just dies as I exit (!). Even though I have wasted a week on 3dsR3 I still "like" this program. JD
