Build your application with debugging info (-g option) if you haven't already
done so, then run
   symify appname
after the crash.  Symify reads the dump from the screen and translates the
addresses into module names and line numbers.  That should tell you where the
crash is happening, which might be enough.  Does the program also crash
outside of Windows?  If not, you may be doing something which is illegal
under dpmi.
