- A related porblem that may or may not help. I have a 486 running Win'95. I
- installed the bleeding edge 1.99p2. Whenever I tried to access my Dos
- drives, I would have to wait about 5 minutes for it to scan the drive and
- create a window. Later, when I dropped my modem connection, (which had been
- running a PPP connection for me) Executor accessed the drives fairly quickly.
-
- Hope it helps,
