Ahmed: are you sure you set all your vars to zero?  That is the cause of a
lot of bugs like that (it's the problem with DStar v2.5).  A test for that
is to run a large game such as Breakout right before it then see if it
crashes (if it does, continue, otherwise keep experimenting hehe).  Then
insert the following at the beginning of the program:
ld hl,$8265
ld (hl),0
ld de,$8265+1
ld bc,74
ldir
If that fixes it, you found the bug!
btw, I can tell you're just dying to use SOS libs...
