Hi,

I tried the DPEXP/DPIMP trick, but that didn't help. I'll try the Big Clean
method, and see if that yields any results.

BTW, I'm running Linux, and using Dosemu to run DP. However, the problem also
occurs on a machine running Windows 2000 (the only other one I've tested).

Thanks for your help,

Wiebe
