Hi, Is anyone else out there using Desktop under WARP. It seems to work, but is very slow. Any suggestions on setting, etc. will be appreciated. Thanks, Dale

I'm running DTS seamless on my desktop with Warp fullpack (the one with WinOS/2). I also ran DTS under OS/2 2.11. It runs better if you run it in a Widows full screen session, but I often use my DTS information with other applications, so I run it seamless. It is a little slow, but fast enough for my purposes. If you're using the fullpack, make sure that you keep the WinOS/2 code loaded. It takes a significant amount of time to bring it up the first time. You can do this by checking "fast load" in WinOS/2 settings or by always having at least one windows program active. I keep my DTS calendar active but minimized when I'm not using it. I can't help you much if you're running the original Warp that needs windows code. . . . John

John, Thanks for the info. The "FAST LOAD" does help considerably. Have you had any sound problems. I find that the alarms play very slowly under OS/2. It may be my sound card — AZTECH — but other windows apps seem to play the sounds at normal speed. Thanks again, Dale

> Have you had any sound problems. Nope. Everything's nice and quiet. I'm not putting money for sound a card into my 386 (besides I'm out of slots), and I haven't scraped together the money for the multimedia pentium screamer that I really want. . . . John
