What exactly are you FreeMem'ing? Is it some additional memory you
allocated?
The bitmap's memory is automatically freed when you FreeBitMap - if you are
trying to free the same memory again, you will definately get a GURU...

It shouldn't - I still think it must have to do with the memory you are
Free'ing.
Why are you freeing it, anyway? Unless you used the OS's AllocMem_ command,
Blitz will free the memory for you when the program ends. Did you try just
removing the FreeMem command to see what happens?

That's mine - I hope it helps...
