That could well be the problem, but it needs a little more testing to verify. If a program _requires_ a coprocessor to run and the computer doesn't have one, the program should quit with an error message indicating that right away. I also know there were libraries available in various languages to simulate a coprocessor if a physical one wasn't available, though things generally run _much_ slower than with a real one. I would think a compiler would have something like that built into it, and would also automatically embed it into any programs it compiled if they also required a coprocessor. _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
