Hello - we have a background process under DOS, which:

	1)	Terminates And Stays Resident
	2)	Chains Off The Timer Interrupt To Run
	3)	Reads Info From A Modem Line And Writes It To Disk

We are having problems with 3) -- sometimes it works, sometimes it crashes.
We have tried looking at the DOS busy flag and appear to do the right thing,
but it still fails intermittantly.

Has anyone out there experienced this problem, and possibly know of a
solution???

Thanks in advance:

				Jordan
