Andrew,
BlackBox has to set the FPU control word in a special way because it
delegates the LONGINT arithmetic to the FPU. So, be careful if you change
those settings and still want to do LONGINT operations afterwards.
Best regards,

Subject: FPU control word
Hello,
does anyone know what the FPU control word is? Does BlackBox change
the value of the FPU control word? If so is there a way to stop it being
changed?
Regards
Andrew
