Hi Tom,
This ain't gonna help but may make you feel better with the knowledge that
someone else is having similar problems :)
My PC is totally different using an Intel P2 and an Riva graphics card with
DX6 but I get the same error and basically thought it was a crap shape file
(didn't mess around for to long) but what I have found is this started just
after I installed IE4 and all its gubbins....

whatever it turns out to be I blame Microsoft ;-)

Pete.
