Does anybody else play Descent network under Windows '95?  I have this problem
that after playing for a few minutes, Descent will just quit me back to the
DOS prompt.  It doesn't crash, either, cuz I'll be flying along and suddenly
the screen will fade to black and then the DOS prompt appears (with all the
text that was there before I entered Descent).

I was wondering if the Parallax guys could shed any light as to what sort of
situations might cause an event like this to occur.  It's quite a shame, 
because if not for this bug, network Descent would work flawlessly under
Windows '95.
