Hi all.

I am trying to multitask opendos and have a task with {commo} comm prog
in the background downloading files.

DEVICE=C:\OPENDOS\EMM386.EXE DPMI=OFF multi=on FRAME=NONE

Is my emm386 line and I am using cwsdpmi for my dpmi support.

I tryed to have my taskmgr.ini file so that com4 with my modem
was com4=0 then I tryed com4=auto and just about every other number I
could think of.

I can't get the comm program to keep running and update the screen etc
while in the background.

Does any one have taskmgr working well?

Thanks
Sam
