GPF with MPXPlay

Ok, this is a screwy one...
I'm in the building stage of my box.
I have a one-line batch file that runs MPXPlay. This batch file is run from the autoexec.bat file. I get GPFs consistantly, even using a call to the file. Strange thing is, if I rem out the command to run the batch file in autoexec, everything runs fine. Anyone else run into this?

Not at all, and I am doing the exact same thing. Can you run MPXPlay fine from the command prompt with the same commands you have put into your batch file?

Exactomundo, AV. Exact same commands work flawlessly from the command prompt, but hang when run from the autoexec.bat

OK, have you tried running your batch file from the command prompt?

OK, I'm stumped. If you want to e-mail me a copy of your autoexec.bat and batch files, I'll compare them to the ones I'm running. Beyond that, who knows???
BTW, how did you do your DOS install? I installed Win98 (for large hard drive support) and TweakUI (turn off Splash Screen and GUI).
