Person) Organization: North Dakota State University, Fargo Lines: 14 I had a call today from someone who is having problems with the Q&A database/word processor/whatever it is. It would refuse to run from the hard disk, start up fine and then die with a "!problem!" message. Something about a hardware or software error ( good diagnostic message, huh.) Sounds to me like a hardware problem, except that all the other programs we tried worked fine. I'm giving up on this one. I dont like Q&A and wont use it. But the way the error message was worded it sure sounds like a *major* problem with the computer. Any ideas? -- Brett G.
