I just bought AutoDesk Animator 1.3. Whenever I try and run ANICONV from DOS, I get an 'Abnormal Program Termination' error. If I try and run it from a DOS promt under Windows, it starts up, my I can't move the cursor with the mouse. Anybody got any ideas as to what's going on? I have a 386/40 woth co-proc, 8 megs of RAM, and QEMM. Here is my CONFIG.SYS: rem config08.sys DEVICE=C:\QEMM386.SYS RAM EXCLUDE=B000-B7FF DMA=32 shell=c:\ndos.com @c:\nu\ndos.ini /p device=c:\loadhi.sys \sstordrv.sys /noauto=a: /noauto=b: device=\devswap.com device=c:\dos\setver.exe rem device=c:\loadhi.sys C:\WINDOWS\RAMDRIVE.SYS 2048 /e rem device=c:\loadhi.sys c:\dos\smartdrv.sys 2048 DOS=HIGH,UMB files=35 buffers=30 STACKS=9,256 Thanks, Ellison

Ellison, the combination of smartdrive and ramdrive looks troublesome. You may not have enough RAM left after loading those two. I suggest trying a simple config.sys: files=35 buffers=30 Or at least the minimum you can get by with and an autoexec.bat with just your mouse. Then try running animator pro. Alternatively, for a quick test try putting a REM in front of your Ramdrive line. Let us know what happens. Martin
