on a new installation of win98se and simply 8.0, everytime I close out SA, a winsim error message pops up and freezes the pc. I've checked around the net but can't seem to find a resolve for this. Re-installing w98 & SA didn't seem to help.

References to "winsim" at MSKB here (http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q100/0/54.asp) and here (http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q82/8/60.ASP).

Both about entries in [Compatibility] Section of Win.ini, but neither directly mentions Win98.

A place to start though. Program may need upgrade or patch.

the winsim error message was caused by the trident video driver. When I swapped out video cards the problem went away.
