POV beta 12 on Windows 95 Compaq PII 266 with 64M RAM. 

Exact as reported above, but for me this happened on install, at the end of 
the install I say yes to a sample render, then minimised the windows and 
proceded to do some other work, the sound played when the render finished, 
and a message box appeared so I clicked on it and continued with what I was
working on.  

Later on I noticed that there was a POV icon on the task bar it wouldn't 
open, no context menu so I tried to end the task, and when I rebooted 
the icon was in the taskbar again and also wouldn't respond. 

A reinstall fixed this, so I tested it a third time by installing and 
minimising the windows at the end of tthe process, and the same thing
happened again.
