Could you (off list if you want) send me a more or less detailed description of which files to get and run and I will see if I can find the kernel issue. Two questions though, did you try with 4DOS or MS Command.com to rule out FreeCom issues (not sure why it would cause it, but I do know it sometimes causes weird issues) and was this with dev kernel, stable kernel, or both?
