"Unable to open file..."

[bhalco at my-deja.com]

Launching with -winver win95 made no difference.

The file is intact.  The program reads it correctly if I boot
Windows 95.

I uninstalled/reinstalled once after freeing up some disk space,
with no affect.

As a long shot, I also copied the directory in question to a
Linux partition and launched from there, in case there was some
wierd vfat problem.  It made no difference.
