Just to let you know that it is working now. It was weird, I had to install
Win32s manually (from the changes it made on my desktop's SYSTEM.INI). It
seems to be running fine. I'll let you know if I encounter problems in the
future. The setup program provided in the .ZIP file doesn't work with the TP
(at least in my case).
BTW, I read (I think in the FAQ) that 32 bit access worked fine, but in my
case it is kind of flaky, I don't remember exactly what the problems were,
but it was crashing my system (hybernation or suspend?). Other than that the
machine works fine, it is currently running Windows and OS/2 for WIN,
although I have to change SYSTEM.INI depending on which environment I am
going to work.
My machines's setup is:
TP750 Cs w/12 MB. RAM
340 HD
MHZ Xjack 14.4 modem (the older one)
It is a workhorse, and with SLIP, it connects without a glitch to
the Internet. All the shareware WINSOCK programs run, and the MHZ. modem has
never given me any problems.
Thanks,
Bernardo
