	I'd suggest you try running WordPerfect cause it is
working PERFECTLY for me. If you make your fonts 8 point
non-proportional there are no problem. If you make the menus font
something else (but leave the default screen font the same) the
menus come up just fine but they look a little off. The only way
you can cause it not to work is by making the default screen font
something other than the normal font, and then it doesn't crash
its just that the display is all garbled.
