Re Keystrokes: Possible BIOS compatibility

["Patricia M. Godfrey" PriscaMG@xxxxxxxx]

Looking for a tool to track down a minor annoyance, I discovered the
Keystrokes routine in U2. The only problem is that it will only run on
one of the six machines on which I have XyWrite permanently installed,
As they're all running some version of 9x, it could be the general
bugginess of that pathetic excuse for an opsys. But perhaps not, for
various complicated reasons. Has anyone running an NT-based Windows (NT,
Y2K, XP) on a PC with a fairly recent (post-1996) BIOS run it
successfully? Would some kind souls like to test?
On one it runs, on one it locks up, and on all the rest it crashes with
an "Illegal operation: tried to execute an invalid instruction" (or, in
one case, "General Protection exception"). On a couple of them (haven't
tested on all yet), it locks up even after a reboot to DOS. That is what
makes me suspect a BIOS glitch, along with the fact that the PC where it
runs and the one where it locks up are running the exact same release of
Windows: 95C. The one where it runs is that with the oldest BIOS. I can
supply detailed data of BIOS, memory reports (both with and without
XyWrite loaded) and pif properties if anyone knows how to interpret all
that.
Robert, if you're lurking, this is NOT a request, not even a hint, for a
fix. I know what you think of 9x. And I did get it to run on one system
and saved the resultant file.
