You should remember that Windows 95 itself is a loosing game, because it
allows you to violate the memory without reporting it.

try the following code fragment on W95 and plain DOS:

void violate()
{
  char *s,
  s = NULL;
  strcpy(s,"Hello world\");
}

and see what happens.

To your problem: If you program crashes on DOS it has definitely some
bugs in
it (running OK on W95 does not mean that your program is OK. I had to
learn this)
