	I just got my 386, setup DesqView 386, and have been having some
communications problems.  I remember reading a few posts about people
running either a bbs or just comm programs in the background.  Well,
anyways, I put telix in the background, and ran a game in another window,
and it came to a really slow SLOW near halt.  This was quite a suprise,
since I have a 25 mhz machine.  

	So I am soliciting those desqview experts as to how to fine
tune DesqView, and still have reliable communications.  I think
the machine may have been dropping characters since there were erors
in a local transfer also.

	If you are running this setup, please e-mail me, or post.
	I may be a little late for this discussion, since I wasn't
	able to keep up on my acccount for the summer.

	thanx
