I have never successfully got any of the REBEL programs to run under NT4 or 3.51. The problem is probably to do with memory or device addressing which is presumably direct in Rebel. The NT4 16bit DOS shell subsystem likes to keep control of everything so all device addressing should be via legal channels. DOS didn't care. So errors occur quite often on DOS software written with illegal calls (illegal for the NT4 subsystem that is). Often calls made this way are quicker and speed things up generally. I wouldn't advise you to trash Win98 and load NT4 on the hope REBEL will run, it's more likely not to. MCP8 runs well under NT4 with 10Mb of memory for hash. Hiarcs5,6,7 all run under NT4 but with little hash memory. The next version of REBEL will be compatible with Nt4 I'm sure. Keith
