It does describe it as 'rare'. It happens to me >every time. I've seen this about 10% of the time I've re-run ST/Win over the 2 weeks I've had it. Always comes up promptly the second time I try it. 8MB machine, very large swapfile (PgmMgr reports 21.8MB free as I type). I've also had problems with starting up ST from a command line vs. icon -- it usually blows up and locks up the system -- and with selecting text on the right side of my SVGA screen. I've reported both issues to Digitalk, and they've said they may have a fix for the SVGA problem. I get the feeling that they're working very hard to be responsive, but like many vendors are having such a large surge of calls from a new Windows product that it's hard to keep up. -- Barry Press Internet: press@venice.sedd.trw.com
