Hello,
	I'm working on an Olliveti M28 and having some problems using
	several applications:

	1. PFM - Will run, but when scrolling of file names needed it
	   just doesn't scroll, but it will continue to function.

	2. Borland's THELP - Again, installs itself, but when pressing
	   its hot key (Keypad 5) the cursor disapears, NOTHING changes on
	   the screen, and it looks that THELP works just fine, only it
	   doesn't update the screen.

	3. PCED - Most strange of all: When trying to install it, it says
	   that someone else is using it's interrupt, even if I run it
	   first from AUTOEXEC.BAT

	I have a CGA card with monochrome display and a Bernoulli Box 10+10.

	The command "ver" says that it's an Olliveti DOS ver 3.10, loading
	the system from an MS-DOS on disk doesn't solve the problem.

	Please E-mail me directly, as my news server is unreliable.

Thanks in advance,
- Amos Shapira
