Alex -

First to all on the list, my apologies for misunderstanding and 
thinking that DOS 7.1 was a 32 bit system.

Second, I am not sufficiently conversant/competent to try to compile 
and run the code you provided.  If you would kindly provide an .exe 
file with instructions, it would be appreciated.  Since I eventually 
will be able to run RHIDE on my computer, which may not have  a 
problematic video card, I would like to be able to retain the 
original copy of RHIDE.

Much thanks to all.

Ethan
