We are running TAG in OS/2 wil SIO and have not had a problem with
VX00.SYS.  Right now my Co-SysOp is the OS/2 expert, but a suggestion
I could make is, how you are starting up the VX00.SYS.

We had quite a time the first week of OS/2.  We found a SysOp in New
York, Scott Raymond, who knew OS/2 well and got may of our bugs worked
out from him.  I don't have a phone number but he does have a FIDO
address.  He might be the person to talk to.

One other suggestion, make sure that every thing on your system has
it's own IRQ (execpt the printer can share IRQ).  OS/2 makes its calls
to the IRQ and if com3 and com4 are set to factory defaults, they may
have IRQ conflicts.  (That was our first problem)

Stick wil OS/2 it will make a difference, even if it gets dim.
