Hello,
Do you have XMS drivers running? Any other background drives should be
disabled and then Cmpeg usually runs fine. It should be run from the DOS
Prompt, not a DOS instance under Windows.

I have always found that booting from a floppy can be a good idea.
Altrentivly you could obtain a better MPEG compiler. MPEG 2 is much better
than MPEG 1. The only problem is that fewer people have access.

Regards,

Luke
