Problem: General Protection Fault caused by Foxpro

Background:  Our 16 bit version of CardWare is compatible with 60% of the display drivers available for the various  display cards installed in systems running under  Windows 95 and Windows 98 and NT. Changing the display driver can fix this problem but the result may not be acceptable because some of your display driver functions, including resolution, may not be available when running under a different driver.

Note:  We have a true 32 bit version of CardWare program  available. You may qualify for a free replacement.  Contact Spectrum Unlimited for details.

The  following solution is for Windows 95 users. If  you are running Windows 98 or Windows NT, please use the windows Help system to learn about how to choose another display driver.
