You didn't mention which release of Win95 you're using. How about the USB patch from MS, do you have it installed? Win95 is a deprecated and broken OS, there will be no upgrades for it from MS. The Jan 15th snapshot was an effort by DJ to get cygwin to run as smoothly as possible on Win95 by working around the bugs within the OS and IMHO will be the last time that Win95 will be given special attention unless some user wishes to contribute fixes. How about Win98 users? I don't remember seeing complaints of this nature from Win98 users and definitely not from WinNT users. SUGGESTION: Upgrade to at least Win98, but if at all possible switch to WinNT!! ST: Linux advocates, we already know that you'd suggest switching linux. === YAWIA, Earnie Boyd Newbies, please visit _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
