Very goofy problem

Ok, so i adapted the code for the demo as i said in my post about fat12 and i had alot of problems such as page faults in bochs to straight not working on real hardware. just... doing nothing. i compiled the code on my desktop and thought at first it was my code so i compiled the original demo source. similar problems. bochs just kept triple-faulting and virtualpc locked up. So i switched to my laptop and recompiled the demo code on it. EVERYTHING WORKED GREAT!!!! I havent tried to compile my own code on it yet but i was hoping someone could explain why code compiled on computers running the same software in the exact same configuration will work compiled on one machine but not on another? am i crazy? does my desktop have some kind of "I dont wanna compile for you" virus? anyone have an answer for this bizarre behavior??????
sadly i just found out that even using the code compiled on my laptop the os will not work on actual hardware. However, i think that it may be because i am using a usb floppy drive as the boot drive on my laptop. could this be why the code is hanging on that computer?
