Unit graph and Windows NT 4.0

Hi,

I have problems with running a DOS (real/protected mode)
program using the Unit graph under Windows NT 4.0.

Does anybody know about these problems?

Thanks,

Thanks, so it does not seem to be a general NT 4.0 problem.

When I try to run the program below on a Pentium II, NT 4.0,
my IDE will be killed when the gettime operation is executed.
(no runtime error)
When I execute the program after leaving the IDE
it is the same - the program is killed without showing the
system time.
The program runs correctly when
- I start it on the same PC running only DOS 6.x
- I start it on another PC with NT 3.51
- I exclude the "graph" commands from the program
(and start it on NT 4.0)

Any Ideas?
