BL> Aha! Thanks, Paul. I've never tried TinyPoint and Telix on an
BL> uncompressed file with your new modem. I'll do as you suggest.

BV> That shouldn't worry Tinypoint or Telix. If you are running TP
BV> from within Windoze, that may be the source of the problem.

BL> TinyPoint?
BL> The problem is just Telix, because that's all that's running.

Yeah, but you mentioned TinyPoint. I didn't want to confuse you.

BL> Paul was right, BTW.

Paul was NOT right Bob. It wasn't a virus!

BL> I dropped down to DOS and it downloaded with no trouble at all.

Gee, I wonder who suggested you try that.

BL> It's obviously Windows, so Telix must be pumping out stuff quicker
BL> than Windows can handle it. I've got Telix set at 19200, and COM1
BL> at 19200, so perhaps that was being exceeded by an uncompressed file.
BL> It's all a mystery to me.

The problem would indeed be Windoze. Particularly on your machine.
It just wouldn't be able to service all the interrupts being
generated by the transfer.
