Hi,
I have no idea about this but a lot of earlier programs took
unmentionable liberties with the holes in the original code. SMSQ/E
tightened up on a lot of these holes so older programs tend to fall
over. Apart from that many of them wrote direct to hardware which, on
QPC2, no longer

Just my few EuroCents here, but I think the Aurora version is really
just an added graphics driver, not a new operating system

Roy, I have Chas Dillon's source files for Xref v3.11(assuming it's
the same program as XREF-200) so that someone with knowledge of Turbo
could probably take a look at what's happening perhaps. Chas kindly
released the sources some time ago. At the very least someone might be
able to recompile

I have a copy of Xref200, V2.01. No problems running it under QPC2/SMSQE. I
use it quite often. The code to be analysed must be loaded in the Job #0

It can read the clock, but you can also do
