So I have a 286 version of “Snake” that I have run on an old Altos server with an older ROM and same amount of memory 3mb. Now on another same exact server with a newer ROM it will crash the machine after loosing the game by hitting the snake. If I take out 2mb it runs fine.. without crashing.. it has nothing to do with system software as Ive taken the hdd drive out of the working one and put it in the one that it crashes. This appears to be the only program experiencing issues.. any ideas on what could be the problem? The newer ROM perhaps?? It honestly doesn’t make any sense..

The error I get when there is more than 1mb on this other machine with the newer ROM is a “Viol 000C: panic: Parity Error (system mode)”
