You may be doing this from a DOS window in a Windows 95 environment. If you
have your network applications running in the background and if there is
large data transfer in the background (in my case NETSCAPE updating certain
screens automatically, the processor loses synchronization. In this case I
shut down all other communication oriented applications, mail, netscape,
etc., and it seems to help.

Sometimes it is best to start the machine in the MS DOS mode and this has
always worked for me.

Better yet, use the hbdl for Windows 95 recently put out in the Handyboard
homepage. This works fine from Windows 95.

I have a problem, which is more an inconvienve.  At first my HB does not
load IC correctly.  But after five or so repeats of the below procedure, it

Everything is OK here.

As I mentioned above, that if I do this process around five or so times, IC • will go straight through with no problems.  Thanx for any suggestions.
