I have been playing mine (DeepTrouble) against CM8000 personalitys.  I have 2
Win2k systems.  One of them tends to make CM8000 go into a loop, the other one
seems to work just fine.  I think one of the difference is DirectX version 8 vs.
DirectX version 7.  CM8000 goes into a loop on the system with DirectX Version 8
but I do not know if DirectX 8 is really the problem.
