I had many of the same problems...computer locking up, internal consistency errors etc.etc. Like you, I blamed the operating system, then the hardware but even after reformatting etc., VFP 6.0 refused to behave. Also, when I converted a huge commercial application from 5.0 to 6.0, I lost a lot of performance (i.e. declaring a local variable to 2 to 3 times longer!). I documented all of my problems and forwarded coverage logs to Microsoft. They finally admitted to me that VFP 6.0 had serious problems and they would 'get back to me'. In the meantime, I have abandoned 6.0 and continue to work in 5.0. Much more productively I might add.
