subject: LapLink in VDM problem

Greetings Rob,
     I'll combine replies.  Your other note suggested that perhaps I
have an IRQ conflict because of using comm ports on the same IRQ.  That
is not the case with my setup, mouse is COMM1, LapLink on COMM2.  I'm
using a splitter on COMM2 so that I can use alternately a modem or
LapLink.  And yes, I make sure that I have the modem shut down and
any other software requiring that port shut down when I try using
LapLink via OS/2.
RB>Ahhh, had this exact same problem.  You need to set the BAUD rate of
RB>the COM port lower in Laplink (fastest I could get was 38600 if I
RB>remember right) and run it as a full screen session.
     OK!  I will try this when I get home from work.  Currently I have
LL on both the base and remote set for 57600 or something like that.  So
I should lower the rate in the settings on the base side only?
                                                 Thanks,
                                                   Greg
