Well, what is it? If it's a new version of the Borland DOS extender, I
wouldn't particularly trust it either. (For the record, the old one never
once locked up on my 486/33 --- these things are heavily
machine-dependent.) Is tads4exx.zip on ftp.gmd.de?

GO32 is without question the better product. Aside from being
better-tested, it allows programs to use 32-bit registers and flat pointers
instead of the usual 16-bit registers and near/far pointer madness.
