From: "Gary Britt" I don't know if this will help. My guess would be no, but would be easy to try. There is a program called TameDos that can be used to help dos apps under windows. It can also be configured to help win3.1 apps. Mostly this program helps tame certain things relating to CPU usage, but it has so many options it may actually help this problem. You can try it for free. I use it for one dos app I run. Having it help win3.1 apps isn't turned on by default, you'll need to turn it on by editing a text file or moving a file from one directory into the "active" directory of stuff. Something like that. You can get a fully functional 30 day trial at http://www.tamedos.com/ Gary Britt "Thees Peereboom" wrote in message news:opss0oa8062hvhrx{at}news.barkto.com... > Gary, > > The latter - a 16-bit app. > > - Thees Peereboom > > On Sun, 26 Jun 2005 17:32:25 -0400, Gary Britt > wrote: > > > Is Zoot a win32 or Win3.1 app?? > > > > Gary > > > > "Thees Peereboom" wrote in message > > news:opsszxg3fx2hvhrx{at}news.barkto.com... > >> Geo, > >> > >> This is what I did earlier but doesn't help.
