    Temptation, temptation... :-)  We go to Cheyenne Wyoming every year.  That
is about 100 miles north of Denver...  900 miles? ... Thanks anyway. :-)  I'll
just have to control my impatience and try to learn from you this way. :-)
    I tried another test today.  I made a boot disk and booted up in DOS.  It 
took a bit of adjustment here and there but I got InterMail to open and 
Renegade as well.  This contraption does not lock up when I try to call in.  
That is good.  Maybe I am all wet but that tells me the problem is in Windows 
XP.  
    Note: notice the word "try" in "when I try to call
in."  InterMail would 
not recognize the modem signal and I suspect that is because it is not setup 
to run in DOS.  I closed InterMail and opened Renegade.  I then called in and 
the modem did send a strange signal.  It would not answer that signal but it 
did answer when I hit "(A) Answer Modem."  Renegade worked well
from there on.
    Am I all wet or is there something wrong in Windows XP?

Regards,

Ken
