Hello,
    Attempting to render _any_ POV-Ray scene crashes Pov-Ray.  Povray 
parses the scene, but crashes after I see "Warning Stream to Console."  I 
then need to reboot Windows because the system becomes slightly unstable.

Pov-Ray version 3.1g.watcom.win32 (Pentium II optimized) works on my 
computer though.



Bug information:
    Pov-Ray 3.5 Beta 6, Microsoft Windows 95 4.00.950 B, Intel(R) 
Celeron(TM) @ 800 MHz, 256 MB of PC100 SDRAM.


Here are the error details reported by CrashGuard version 4:

Internet Explorer 4 has not been installed yet, this should only affect the 
help file though. Could it be that I the wrong version of some system .dlls 
or the new compiler sometimes creates executables incompatible with (newer) 
Celeron CPUs?
