I've noticed that my BBS version of Tw2002 is running under DESQview mode. I am actually running my BBS under Windows 2002. Is there a way to fix it so that it runs under WinNT mode?

Thanks

It is supposed to auto-detect it as I recall. I've never seen it auto-detect the wrong OS before but the last time I tried to run it on a Windows box was Windows NT 4. Several service packs later etc. TW may just be making it's best guess. You might want to explicitly add the command line option MULTITASK=NO to the batch file that calls TW just to make sure it handles timeslices properly and make sure you run the DPMI version.

Thank yoou for your response.

I had already tried adding the MULTITASK=NO switch and seems a bit better but the programs still detecting the wrong OS. I am drunning the DPMI version.

DESQview v9.99 Detected - DPMI mode.


Somehow I doubt DESQview ever made it to version 9, heh.

Thanks
