I just tried NA Ver. 10.52 from a Command Prompt on this Windows 2000 
5.00.2195 Service Pack 1 and loaded a log with 1172 QSO's.

Only thing active on the Equipment menu was Keyer - the CW sounds 
really strange on the speaker, which is understandable.

Alt-X, E and Alt-X, W worked fine and it closed the Command Prompt 
window with either EXIT or clicking on the X.

I believe I've had the same results with my Dell Lattitude laptop with 
Windows 2000 and Service Pack 2.  I've also run NA from a mapped drive 
on another computer with no noticeable degradation.

This desktop and the laptop both are formatted with FAT file systems so 
I can go to real DOS and see the hard drives - only use NTFS on the 
servers.
I have had the "hung Command Prompt window" on Windows 9x and NT4.0, 
but I believe it was mother board related.  At least that's the only 
thing different that I could see between the computers involved.
