Just a note: I ftp'ed 1.1 and the altdoom1 files, and it still locks up for me.
I tried all of the alternate dos extenders in altdoom1, but they all lock up.

The computer is about 2 weeks old.  It is a Texas Instruments 486DLC-40MHz.
Does anyone else have this computer and/or problem?

I wish I could play!!! :(

Mike.
