I was minding my own business working on a mesh when I decided to optimize it. I pressed "F12", clicked on "ok" for "optimize", selected an object, then clicked on "optimize" when the following happened: 1) My screen froze 2) The following message appeared in regular DOS format, overwriting only as much space as the characters occupied, leaving the rest of the now frozen optimize dialog on screen: "Abnormal program termination:Memory protection fault CS:EIP= 005fh:00015CA1h C:\3DS3>" I have a 486dx66 with 16 MB RAM, a Hercules Dynamite Pro with 2 MB RAM, almost a gigabyte of hardrive space (between my two hard drives), and I'm running the latest QEMM, V.7.5. Any ideas? This also happened when I clicked "render on" in Displace, but I just reentered 3DS3, tried it again, and there was no recurrence of the problem.
