Well, this appears to be the same basic problem that we had when the
166 MHz processors showed up. When Borland created their delay routine
for the Pascal compiler I am using, they didn't make it "166 MHz
compliant". What happened is that a number they computed as a divisor
got too big if the processor was running too fast - and created an
overflow situation.
I will investigate this as I am sure that the Borland Pascal underground
has probably already seen this and someone has created a new patch to
fix the problem. I will try to have this figured out for the next
release.
Does TR run on the Pentium II computer? I would expect the same thing to
happen.
