Lines: 14 X-Telephone: +1 (416) 364-5361 Fax +1 (416) 364-2910 Telex 0622259 X-Mail: 1900/2 First Canadian Place, Toronto, Canada, M5X 1E3 I've seen many many postings with this subject, but I've yet to come across a description of just what everyone is on about. I run 386ix 2.0.2 so I'm more than academically interested, if I've got the gist of the thread right. (I *do* have a 387, which in some postings sounds like a good thing). Can someone (re) post an exact, factual description of the problem please? (or at least Email one to me). Thanks ../Leigh ----------------------------------------------------------- loc@tmsoft.UUCP uunet!mnetor!tmsoft!loc loc@ipsa.reuter.COM (Leigh Clayton)
