Anyone know why I would modem problems with windows and
not in DOS. I have 2 com ports and 1 internal modem at
com 3. The mouse is working fine as com 2 in windows
but I'm having flacky probs with and windows application
that uses a modem. Hangs system, with faults, download 
problems. If I use the internal modem with Procomm
under DOS 5.0 only, everthing works fine. Do I have some
kind of interrupt conflict maybe ?? Windows does use
the mouse and the modem at the same time where Procomm
wouldn't. Didn't seem to have many problems under windows
3.0. I'm running a 286 system in case that matters.

Thanks,
Gary
