Subject: Runtime R6003 again ??
From: "Tps Informatic" <hans@tps-informatic.com>

Hi,

Don't say again, once more that R6003 question.
We encountered a strange problem this day with a clipper
  program. Our program was transfered on a system that uses
  a AMD-K6 500Mhz cpu. When we start the program a runtime
  R6003 error is displayed.  Our program is compiled with
  the __wait_4.obj file known for a long time.
Our program is installed on all kind of cpu's from p2 to P3
  without any problem.
We tested it on a AMD-K6 550Mhz cpu. The same problem.  The
  last test was on a AMD-K7 600Mhz cpu,  and what happened
  NO problem. ?????
Is there someone who knows about this problem.

Thanks
HANS SCHILTMANS.

Either try using __wait_b.obj instead of __wait_4.obj or use
  the following patch that replaces the DIV CX instruction
  that causes the R6003 error with two NOP instructions.
Use a hex editor to find the following sequence of bytes in
  your program:
  B8 52 17 8B CA 33 D2 F7 F1
Replace the F7 with 90 and also replace the F1 with 90.
