Why is it when I try to open L3P.exe it just appears for a brief second and
then turns off? Does it have anything to do with Windows 2000? BTW I use L3Lab
to generate my POV files, is there any way to incorporate L3PAO to use L3Lab to
generate the POV file? Any help would be appreciated.
BTW I am inexperienced with DOS programs.
