Problem Title:
FLOORPLANNER: ATI video driver may cause general protection fault


Problem Description:
The video driver ATI mach64 PCI [nacxw4] [direct draw] may cause
general protection fault when calling a map file on the floorplanner.


Solution 1:

Try changing to another video driver. ATI's web page is at www.atitech.ca; there
 may be a driver available that fixes this problem.

In one situation, the problem was solved by changing from '256 color mode' to "h
igh-color mode'.
