Re: FLASH: Freezing on Trace Bitmap

[dk]

yeah... I run it on Win98 with 128 mb... and the trace feature is very hard

on the RAM.... I can usually only do 5-8 before I need to reboot (although

they are highly detailed photo's).... and I also do the same as Cheri..... a

reboot before heavy tracing functions.
