Thanks for your replies.
I apreciate your comments vinylpusher and understand the problems with the actual code, however..
Taking out the keyboard check routine does stop the problem but only because the F1 help isn't being displayed. If you force it to display and leave the keyboard check out the problem remains.
The issue here is not my crappy code :) but the fact that it runs smoothly & constantly (help displayed or not) on one machine which is actually less powerful graphically than the others....a year ago it ran fine on all machines (I am a stippler for not being happy with anything not running smooth)
The only things that have changed are Blitz has been updated, I went from 2000 to XP, increased RAM & direct X has been updated....could it be a problem with how the 'TEXT' command renders and one of them?
apreciate your time on this.
