| | Re: VPC2007/DOS CPU hog Whoops, At first blush, I should have said the wrong thing that led to misunderstanding. I actually meant my DOS system was slowing down, and I wanted it to be at normal speed (faster) Sorry Jack |

| | Re: VPC2007/DOS CPU hog Hello Robert, I have just got a DOS application hanging around while I am concentrating my work from XP (host). And I want to keep that application running rather than leaving it to the command prompt. But now the CPU is 70% while I am using that app. Thanks Jack |
