Sorry to re-post on top of my previous one, but I've had another thought (on a Friday as well !). Given that the problem has shown on Win 98 SE, but seems okay on Win XP & 2K: Maybe the clock 'tick' used in the Win 9x API is different to that used in the Win NT API ? I don't have access to a Win 9x machine at the moment, but maybe someone would like to try something like a 'CALL Sleep(2000)' in G77 under Win9x and see if it waits for around 2 seconds ? This question seems to have stirred some distant memory in the darkest recesses of my brain, about Win 9x clock ticks being at milli-second intervals, but those recesses are far too dark to be able to remember clearly.

Check the FAQ's to see if C sleep() or | | the Sleep API | | may not be supported on 98. | | | | I did check the FAQ, but without success... | | I am not very adept at cygwin and g77...
