[line eater fodder]
Well, I think I have something of interest to PROCOMM users. I have (and a
friend also) noticed lockups using PROCOMM (several versions). We did not
notice any apparent cause until recently. Here's the scoop:
I am running a XT clone at 8 mhz with:
2 com ports, Hayes modem on COM2, line to VAX on COM1
20 MB hard disk
color graphics
other normal stuff.....
When talking to the VAX (COM1), and the phone rings (RI line on
COM2 goes high due to the modem) the machine takes a hike into
nah-nah land. I am NOT saying this will happen on all machines,
but it sure does on mine and my friends. Hope this might solve
some problems with an otherwise GREAT comm package.
Please don't flame me, it is just an observation. E-MAIL responses if any.
