Awesome!!! it fails at the same 8400511 entry.. did you check how many iterations runs until it fails?
Do you mean what happens without lines 106 or 126?

It actually does not get much further, but errors out instead. This is with a starting number of 8400511. The variable (C) containing the number of steps at this point contains 68.
This is the result on screen:

Exactly. On ZX81 it runs correctly about 300 rounds (starting on 8400511) and in Spectrum about 90.. I m out right now, I can check the exact number when I get back home..
