Hi Roy,

Did the previous DOS Rebel ran well on the same system?

Various hints,

1) Turn off the sreensaver in the shortcut you are using;

2) Extend the command line parameter in the shortcut with the V parameter,
something like REBEL.EXE W6 V

3) Check the README file for more hints.

My best,

Ed
