Hi all,
Don't know why I didn't try this earlier....
I booted into Microsoft DOS from my old Windows98 Startup Disk. Now
tc runs and it runs stable. I think this strongly suggests an
incompatibility of the TBC 3.0 with Freedos. Perhaps the program is
just too strongly bound to the subtle intricacies of MSDOS. I can't be
sure, but I really doubt that any kind of tinkering with memory managers
or the dpmiinst utility can by itself address the problem. I can only
guess as I am not like most in this group an expert on assembler or
operating systems either, for that matter. If I get some time later
I'll test it with Caldera Dr. DOS and post the results if anyone is
interested.
