The Win3 COMM.DRV communications driver is horrible. There is a replacement called TurboComm from Bio-Engineering Research Labs 2831 7th St. Berkeley, CA 94710 415/540-8080 This driver is aware of the NS16550A[F]N buffered UART and will virtualize it in enhanced mode. It supports high speed interrupt driven comminucations. I've used it to perform V.32bis/HST communications from both Win3 and DOS programs in the box in the background while doing database, spreadsheet, compiles, etc. simultaneously without ever losing a character. It cost me around $25, I think the price went up recently. I've never called it, but their suposed to have a BBS at 415/548-0513 -- Devin Ben-Hur 415/948-1067, 415/949-3941 drazil@netcom.com "To go is to return. Take the afternoon off."
