Off-topic, but... According to my Turbo Pascal docs, runtime error 200 is division by zero. It's possible there's some timing-dependent code in the program. For example, maybe they calculate the time needed to execute some loop (in microseconds, maybe), then divide by it to determine the number of times to run the loop. But on the fast machine, it might take less than a microsecond, which might make the time "zero". > several EXE's all crash w/the code on an athlon 850 w/agp graphics card & > 128mbRAM... but run fine on a p.100 w/pci graphics and 32 mb RAM > Any ideas or links greatly appreiciated, and sorry to bother you with this > OT thread > Thanks for all your help, and take care > > -- Nate Eldredge neldredge AT hmc DOT edu
