Problem (??) w/ F1GP

I keep encountering a problem w/ F1GP which causes my machine to crash. At apparently random times, but associated with keyboard action (often in the act of restarting after a long pause), the system crashes with a blank screen except for the words "PARITY CHECK" in the top left hand corner of the screen. This behaviour occurs both on my 486SX laptop (Viglen) and my new P133 (Dell). Microprose said it was a hardware problem and they'd not heard of it happening with F1GP before, but so far, F1GP has been the only program to cause this behaviour. I find it rather hard to believe that I am so unlucky as to get the only two machines in the world for which it occurs. Has anyone else encountered the problem? Is there a fix?
