Hello I hawe now tested some different wine releases, i Tested The following:20010418,20010629 and 20010824. None of them helped, maybe it means that Overlapped does not affect my program. The handshake patch did not work on 20010418 at all. On 20010629 comm16.c did not exist but it was able to patch comm.c exept for one heap, it seemed to work. on 20010824 comm16.c existed, though one heap failed here to on comm.c, also here it seemed to work. I noticed that on 20010418 and 20010305 some more of the contens in the frames was shown, usualy i just get black frames but on these earlier releases i could see some menues and collor, but it still seemed to hang. This may not mean anything but i thought I should mension it. I think i shal go back to the latest cvs again. The handshake patch is committed there right, good. Does anyone hawe any advice on what i should try next.
