[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] Request for help: TSR/comm program conflict

cpp@cci632.cci.com (Carl P. Petito) (05/15/91)

For years I have used the following on an XT machine:

	load Borland's Super Key (keyboard macros, cut/paste, etc)
	load Borland's Turbo Lightning (speller, thesaurus)
	run  ProComm Plus 

This worked great.  Now, I've upgraded to an Everex 286/12 and Turbo
Lightning won't pop up.  Some of the facts:

	Super Key pops up just fine under all cases.
	Turbo Lightning pops up fine, until I run the comm program.
	It doesn't matter if I'm running ProComm Plus or Kermit.
	I've simplified to the point that only Turbo Lightning and
		(ProComm or Kermit) are loaded.
Basically, I don't understand the differences between an XT and AT that would 
cause this problem.  I also don't understand why Super Key works and Turbo 
Lightning doesn't; Borland says they are very similar.

The only difference that I can see between the two machines are the vectors 
that are hooked:

	XT: 08 10 16 1C 20 21 28 30 
	AT: 08 10 16 1C 20 21 28 E6 EF 

Vendor support has not been helpful, so any ideas or suggestions will be
appreciated.

Thanks,
