I meant that Windows has Windows difficulties not hardware ones. the hardware comment was a seperate suggestion. I was saying that hardware sometimes has its own bugs. However, you are correct about Windows having hardware difficulties.
As for WDE, well it does seem to behave better when you are earlier in devlopment. But as you get to a larger (but not necceasarily large) map and add scripts and more and more sprites it begins to have more problems. I havne't added sounds yet so I don't know what effect that has on the whole thing, but I'd imagine that just adds to it since it appears that WDE behaves worse when it has larger ammounts of data to process. But then that is often true of software and hardware. Its just that certain hardware and software handles larger ammounts. And it's clear (from using it not looking at the code) to me that WDE does not have the most rebust of coding.
So in short, I believe that as you add more data for WDE to process and handle the problems the rest of us get are going to occur for you. Sorry to say it but I think you'll soon be joining the frustrated WDE users. And I say soon because it doesn't take long for enough data to build up. I had just 16 screens and a a few scripts when they started to appear for me (my dmod has gone through many incarnations to get to where it is now at, ie something I am satisfied with).
