I just bought AfterDark for Windows and have been having some
problems with it. It seems to forget where to find its BMP files
are and it dies with UAEs when running some of the savers (e.g.
the Puzzle). 

I have a 386sx clone by Unipaq (probably Mitac actually) with
4MB memory am running Win 3.0, ATM 1.1, User 1.3, and some other
utils. I don't know what version of AfterDark this is there is
no About... entry but I presume its 1.0. The copyright notice
is 1990. Anyone have this? Have these problems? Have a clue?
Thanks in Advance.

By the way, I had ScreenPeace 1.2 installed before and liked it
quite well but had heard so much about After Dark for the Mac that
I wanted it for my system--it does have a coupla savers that are
quite impressive--aquatics, flying toasters, drain, etc. but 
more importantly it allows you to demo the savers one by one.
I currently have After Dark set to the Randomizer saver which
shuffles through the other savers at 30 second intervals.
I haven't seen Intermission, the commercial version of Screen
Peace.

Thanks for you help. Please email me at burhans@usc.edu.
