Gary, While attempting a somewhat complex boolean subtraction, I continue to have problems with system reboots. The only error message I can sort from the screen is one that reads "cheap stack dump linked in =>no dump aborting". The system is a Gateway 486-33Eisa/Weitek/24meg/STB Ergo32K running r2 w/QEMM386 6.0 (self-optimized config). I'm hoping the message means something and that you might suggest the nature of the problem. The program will complete operations with each of the individual elements, but doing so eventually results in termination for lack of RAM. Any suggestions? Scott Rodgers

Me'thinks all of Yost Group is now in Chicago. The "cheap stack dump" error message is from the Phar Lap extender. I'm gettig the same error message from another product using Phar Lap. Not sure exactly what it means though. I would start out by getting rid of all TSRs, and just have QEMM create a frame buffer at E000. Use the NORAM parameter and the FRAME parameter. Are you excluding the F000 line? Are you using stealth? Also, I would go back to the built in VGA driver for 3DS to make sure it's not a video driver problem. Try getting things working in as minimal of a configuration as possible, then start adding options in until it blows. Hey, it only took me 3 weeks to get the network running w/o crashing on my system! Oh well, time for a road trip to Chicago. LAM

Larry- Thanks for the info. I'm sure your right about the Group…some of us have to stay home and work. I'll try your suggestions; have fun in Chicago. Scott
