I recently upgraded to a 386-25 with 8 megs of ram. Until now, I've been
using Software Carousel to task switch on a 286 with 4megs of ram, but
I guess it's time to start multitasking. But so far no luck.

I have windows 3.0, but when I try to run it in enhanced mode, the screen
goes blank. I have an ATIVIP graphics card and a TTL monitor. I'm hoping
that ATI's new drivers will solve that problem.

My preference, though, is to use Desqview, so I borrowed a copy of 2.25
to try it. It has problems with SideKick+ and with WordPerfect 5.0 in 
43-line mode. Are these known problems? Have they been fixed in 2.26? I
am not interested in buying DV with these problems.
