I want to publicly thank Martin for his
help (see below).  The "divide error in module GDK-1.3.DLL
at 0137:00b1b7a0" was caused by using a generic video card driver and not
setting up for the specific monitor I was using.  In my case I am using a
ATI MACH 64 imbedded chip set on my Intel motherboard, with a CTX P500 series
monitor.  Once I set up for them and set my Color Palette to "High
Color (16 bit)", I was able to load Ethereal.
 
I am a happy camper.  Thanks again Martin.

Divide error in module GDK-1.3.DLL
 
<Hi,  Ethereal is the
product that I have needed for quite a while.  I have attempted
to load 0.9.6 and 0.9.7. On a Win95 PC.  I have loaded
WinPcap2.3 and <removed it to load WinPcap3.0.  I have also loaded the
current winsock WS_32.DLL and still am having a problem on the initial
use of
the program.  All <that comes up is an error
box that comes up under details as: "Ethereal caused a
divide error in module GDK-1.3.DLL at 0137:00b1b7a0" 
 
Your problem could maybe be related to the number of
colors (preference/contol panel), screen reslution, graphic drivers or similar.
 
What I remember Cristinas problem was solved by
upgrading the graphic drivers.
 
Windows
DrWatson (drw*.log) log could give some more information about in what routine
the crash occur. 
 
I guess your looks quite similar to this one :
