Mark,

These days I spend a lot of $$ for kid #1 to sleep in a tent in K'ville. But K'ville is wired for internet access (added to the light poles).

Hubby has to clean up viruses after the Komputer Kamp and Talent Identification Program kids have come through.

And the docs in the MC who have money to spend are always buying new "toys."

>>Mark,

>>I have this problem also. I have to hit the power button to get out of it. It does not happen if FPW is opened first.
>>
>>On my other machine I also get Watcom Win32 read errors and the workaround for that is to open FPW first, before the memory-hogging applications. The explanation is that the memory hogs don't properly release all of the memory - whatever that means. ;-)
>>
>>I've trained my FPW users to open FPW first and leafe the app open all day. Using this work-around prevents both problems.

>>Sorry I can't offer a real solution or a real explanation.

>>>Hi guys. We are getting freezes on a lot of machines that have Window 98 2nd Edition. They are double clicking on a FPW 2.6 app, that has been running for years. I have noticed that recently they are all freezing when the user just double clicks the icon. It does not happen to them every time. I have noticed that if they have Word 2000 or Excel 2000 already open, it occurs. But I also think it happens when they reboot and there is absolutely nothing else running.
>>>
>>>Has anyone run into this. Is there a cure. I keep telling each region's Monkey Boy, that there isn't anything we can do. It is just a 16 bit application running on a newer operating system.

>>>We already use the patch for faster spped machines, so the problem is not related. thanks guys
>>>
>>>Yours in FPW 2.6
