With the pending release of the x64 version of Windows XP and Server

workstation until I have DQSD working there.

It's all about binary arithmetic. Spreadsheets have traditionally had this same
issue. There are workarounds for it, but there's a substantial performance
penalty and in most cases it's simply not enough to worry about. The number is
always only off by one bit at the limit of your precision.
You don't specify which version of DQSD you're using. If you're using
the latest RC3 Build, which you should be on Vista, you need to
completely uninstall all previous versions before installing DQSD.
I'm still DQSD-less, since I've been waiting until we have an RTM
version before asking someone
