I have a big problem. Everytime resolution changes while in fullscreen mode, I get CTD without error message. If I try to switch away from fullscreen I get a "dosbox.exe has encountered an error and needs to close". Anyone got a clue what may be causing this?
Specs are as follow:
Q6600
8800GTS 320mb (162.18 drivers)
2Gig 1066Mhz CL4
Win XP Pro x64

I know this may be cause the display drivers, but I hope not, cause I can't change to the beta drivers.

You specify 0.72. Is the behavior different in other versions of DosBox?

Well I have tried only 0.71 and 0.72, it occurs similar with both.

Maybe you can report back somewhen when new graphics drivers are
available for your card, if this solves the problem, too.
