Eric, This reload was when I converted a dos 5.5 database to 6.5++. I thought it might have something to do with the network or finding old 5.5 r:base programs. So I copied the database to that workstations hard drive, logged off the network and got the same crash while reloading indexes. Then I went o the other workstation and did the same thing. When it worked, I logged back onto the network and reloaded from the station with 254 MB and it worked. If you believe that it's not a memory problem, then there might be a problem with the 127MB machine. I might try it on a third machine with less memory and see what happens.
