I haven't used that particular program so I'm not sure what it's
requirements
are. Some things to try with Oasis though. Turn off the clock card. It
follows
the early clock standard which uses the input buffer and some P8
programs have
trouble with this type of clock. In fact, turn off anything you don't
need like
the cpm support or serial support. Make sure to use the IIe rom and not
the rom
supplied by Teodor. His rom is from a clone, a II+ clone I think. While
I have
not had much problem with this rom when using it, I can't vouch for it's
P8
computability. You might also want to use only 128k ram and slow the
emulator
down to standard speeds.

You might also want to try ApplePC if all else fails. I hope it's not a
bug in
the system but if so please post it so I can tell the author.
