I've just done the Big Clean, but it didn't help, unfortunately. It fails at
the same point. However, I don't think it's because of a specific card,
because when I remove the card, it fails at a different ponit.

I also tried not running DP with /w (to output in the latin1 character set),
which I normally use. It didn't make a difference.

BTW, is there any risk in doing a Big Clean? I noticed that some things are
different: the first report ("Built-In Short Reports") used to have a dutch
name, now it's English. Not that that's a problem, it's just different. Also,
when outputting a report to a file, the output also used to be written to the
screen, but that doesn't happen anymore.
