Not a problem .. though I think a friend solved the problem part way for
me and I discovered the last part of the problem on my own. The part I
discovered on my own is that no matter how it's set the modem will only
communicate correctly on one node I get a mail feed from .. if I use BNU..
the second node I get mail from I need to use X00 to connect even. Oddly
now if I switch it in each mail session and reboot (since I only get mail
from one node every other day).. it works fine. Go figure.

This is all a part of how that the friend I spoke of configured my modem
software for me.

This problem was solved along with the modem settings. :}

Why ? Maximus runsd fine now and it uses EMS/XMS as well as Lower Ram.

No .. I was not useing the Dobbs format.

It does. :}

It had been something like taht and also that either X00 or BNU was
unfamiliar with something about connects with one node and the opposite
with the other node.

What does teh 275 signify ?

Yes .. but I have other copies of it elsewhere on the system so I map the
path to the corrcet copy so the pc does not get confused.

The above should help you see how its working now. :}
