I didn't test the memory requirements :-| Now I tested for you in BOCHS ( !!! 100x slower than natively !!! ) with 8 MiB RAM: It WORKS VERY WELL, starts in 2 SECONDS, and can display a small BMP. Also I know what you did wrong and how to fix: DELETE CWSDPMI.EXE DELETE C:\DOS\CWSDPMI.EXE DELETE D:\DGJPP\BIN\CWSDPMI.EXE DELETE D:\BLAH\CWSDPMI.EXE DELETE D:\PROGRAMS\SYSTEM\CWSDPMI.EXE HDPMI32 -r DISPLAY -- ~~~ wow ~~~ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
