Not sure what is causing your problem, but I have some standard settings I use when running FPD26 on Windows XP you might try:

1. Turn off Write Caching on the hard drive
2. Try different settings in the config.nt used for your app:

dos=high,umb
device=%SystemRoot%\system32\himem.sys
Files=200
Buffers=30,8

Files = must be less than 255
It may be that you have to set the FCBS (File Control Blocks).
It needs to be done in the config.nt such as FCBS=64,0 where 64 = the number of files.

3. Run the app using the +x AND whatever config settings you need like:

C:\FoxPro\FOXR.EXE +x -cc:\foxpro\config.fp -t myapp.app

4. For printing, try changing the registry key below to 1 (from the original value of 15):

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\WOW\LPT_Timeout

5. Exclude all files used by your app in all virus software programs.

(You can test disabling it to see if it makes a difference - your virus checker may be holding the files to scan them before storing to disk).
