I've tried it yesterday evening once again after a clean bootup and left Nimzo98 analyzing all night. It did not crash. I do not know why it did a couple of times before. Maybe the not so stable Windows95 had something to do with it. Pointing a finger at Nimzo98 was maybe premature, I apologyze. Ernst-Jan.
