I dl'ed the appropriate kit... containing DSZ.COM and assorted batch files. Can't get dsz to recognize the signal carrier when I try to download with it though. To make things all the more frustrating, I CAN get it to work when I use it directly as a terminal program and file transfer protocall. Can't believe how fast it is! And the feature of being able to pick up where you left off when you drop the carrier 250K of the way into downloading a 260K file really appeals to me. To help diagnose the problem, the downloading bat file I use basically says the following (named ZMODEMD.BAT): dsz rz -r That's precisely what the docs say to do, but I'm stuck for some reason. I'm using Com port 1 (IRQ4) and have even SET the environment to com 1 by typing SET DSZPORT=1. (I know this shouldn't be required if I have the term program set up that way, but I'm desperate and trying anything.) Any PCP users out there that can spot the obvious flaw in my efforts? Help of any kind would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! Jack Pettrey Severna Park, Md.
