I had the same problem, only I didn't get any error messages the first
time Windows "crashed". After about two hours of futzing, I finally
figured it out. Unfortunately, I couldn't get DUST to reinstall
because I had wiped the WIN32S subdirectory, but didn't know which
files under SYSTEM had to go (I eventually figured it out). All that
and I don't even like the game! :P Anywho... that's life. TTFN.
