I have had the same problem with another accounting program for a LONG
(many years) time. The accounting program (ACCPAC) will run on a 32 bit
machine but generates op code errors on a 64 bit machine. I have had to
resort to running it on the one 32 bit machine remotely via ssh.
It is likely a memory management issue that has never been fixed. Yes,
some programs will run on a 32 bit machine but not ones that require
larger memory.
I have tried all different configuration combinations, but after wasting
a lot of time, I just bit the bullet and ran the accounting program on a
32 bit machine.

Let me know as I have a 64 bit box that I am not using because of this
DOS issue.
Must be some old limitation, because I use DOSEmu on a x86_64 system,
and I run 16bit DOS programs without any troubles.
