The 'Fire' screen saver crashes when activated whenever
you have the color depth set to 24 bits (at any
resolution, and by any I mean 640x480, 800x600, and
1024x768.) This does not happen at any other color
depth that I tested (namely, 256 color mode, 16 bit
color mode, and 32 bit color mode) at any resolution
(6x4, 8x6, 10x7.)

I don't know if this bug has anything to do with this one:

If it's at all relavent, I had double buffering enabled
thoughout my testing.

To the best of my knowladge (in that I haven't cracked
my system open for a while,) I have an ATI Rage Fury
card with 4MB RAM (on the card itself -- 96MB system
RAM,) and I ran SEAL in MS-DOS 7.x (the version
included with Windows 98.)

I really hope it helps.
