Kevin, When you install the demo, did you use "pkunzip -d" ? If not, this is your problem. Tony

I did use the "-d" option. Over the weekend, I installed the demo on a friend's Pentium and it worked like a charm. My lowly 386 can't hack it (as suspected). Thanks! Now, if I could just get a 486/DX2 motherboard! One of these days. Kevin
