I wrote about it some time ago, but in very general terms, but i finally figured out whats wrong.

Basically every once in a while, my dosbox 0.70 (as 0.65 did) crashes. As in suddenly turns off, as if i hit alt+F4. I recently discovered that it does this when changing the screen resolution. So, for example, it does this when loading a pinball table in epic pinball or when i run a game. Moreover, this is only a problem in fullscreen mode. works fine in windowed mode.

Many older games don't change their resolutions to often, but playing Death Rally or any pinball game is frustrating as hell.

I'm running a AMD64 2800 with 1 gig RAM, GeForce 7600 GS (AGP, haven't entered the world of PCI-E yet), Windows XP, all servicepacks etc. installed.

I've upgraded the drivers, etc, but it didn't help.

Thanks in advance for any help'n'advice,
