hihihihihi !
I ate such a little problem on my
dev.sys. too :)
the first time it failed on my new cool
machine -
later the problem moved to the next
machine at the room
and at last the problem went to the last
machine I
use - an ibm thinkpad 486
the problem reported by the machine was
the same
and it turned out that the new firmware
chips I use
and the new spasm does have a bad
influence on win95
IF the device statement is not in the
first line of the source code

it assembled all right , but when it
came to programming
it turned unreliable . sometimes perfect
sometimes impossible
5:95 %

btw to anybody using notebooks to
program pics and stamps -
if you use it under win95 it's advised
to switch to top speed mode
(esp on thinkpads :) )
