I'm having a problem with starting the new KA9Q "net.exe" program 
on some of the IBM compatible PCs.  The program is 1990 copyright 
version 900928 and it runs fine on most PCs.  However, when I try 
to run it on an AST Bravo/286 PC-AT compatible and an HP Vectra CS 
PC-XT compatible, I get the following error message continuously:

	timer: ints were off!

I was successfully using 1989 copyright version 890816 of the KA9Q
on these machines without any problems.  And the above problem 
occured when I upgraded to the new KA9Q software.

I would greatly appreciate any help/suggestions in this matter.

	Khalid Mirza.
