You are not using a read timeout or anything like that are U? How about trying a different PC. Is it really a FP problem or an issue with your PC. I have to admit this does sound strange. In idle FP crashes. Have U launched FP 2.6 directly to see if this problem is within FP, (i.e. at the command window this problem occurrs). Is you application compiled? I had some strange problems using FP DOS on IBM PCs. Especially with that Micro Channel stuff. I always had to tweek the system to make stuff work. FoxSwap also did not like IBMs. Well look into this stuff and give me some more details... good luck...
