UNSOLVED
DOS vs. Windows Problem
I have the infamous AZTECH-3900 and have a couple of questions. I have a DOS program that I use to dial into a client site to do mainframe work. My system came with the TurboCom package that supposedly makes the modem work like a hardware modem. I still cannot get the DOS program to work. The program cannot find the modem even though I supply it with the com port and address that TurboCom assigns to the AZTECH. Does anyone have a solution to this?
Thanks for the input....

Are you running the program from within Windows in a DOS box, or are you booting to DOS to run the program? I'd strongly recommend running the program from within a DOS box in Windows.

David,
I am running from a DOS box. It just will not recognize the modem. I can run this on my old PC using a ZOOM modem, but not on this one. Any suggestions?
Thanks for your prompt reply!!!!

First, what resources does the TurboCom program assign the modem? Second, what resources does Windows assign the modem (check Device Manager)? If they are different, if you tell the program to look at the resources that Windows assigns the modem, does it work?
