Re: 6.52 (and 7.01 EOD!!!) crashes very often on Windows 2000

I am running 32megs on one machine, 64 on another.  6.52 will crash if I am
running only MetaStock.  On my office machine I am running NAQ's RealTime
Trader.  I will add that I never had a crash with ver 5.11.  My machines
are for trading and I do not keep non-trading programs open during the day.
 The crashes come when attempting to cycle thru securities with the arrow
buttons and when accessing a chart from the small window on the lower right
side of the screen.  Believe me, Equis knows of this problem, they simlpy
will not address it, just like the printing problems.  

I might add that I never had a printing problem until I responded to a post
discussing printing problems.  Now I have them regularly.   Hope your
response does not bring you crashes.
