From: wolfy.csd.unsw.oz.au My Platform: NEC 386/20 2Mb RAM Windows 3.0 Racal Interlan 6510 Ethernet Adaptor FTP Software PC/TCP using Resident Module Version 2.03 pl 3 Packet Driver Type 35 My Problem: The TCP resident module occupies approximately 83K of valuable memory that I require most of the time. I can load the module before I start Windows. This works and I can swap windows, but I do not have enough memory to do anything useful. I would therefore like to load and unload the module as it is required. I have written a batch file to load the module, open a command shell and then on exit from the shell remove the module. This process works correctly and all communications occur as they should. The problem occurs when I attempt to swap to another window with the module loaded. The system hangs. I have tried all possible combinations of PIF settings in an attempt to stop this occuring. These efforts have proved fruitless so far. Has anyone got any ideas?? If not I would love an explanation just for my enlightenment...
