I also tested older FreeCOM version 0.82 - somehow it doesn't pass my autoexec.bat. My machine looked like locked up with that obsolescent version. I was able to "single-step" through autoexec.bat, but at the very end - after last line of autoexec.bat - there's no command prompt. System looks like hung up - but can be restarted using three finger salute.
So the only thing I could do was to bypass autoexec.bat and then to do LH FDAPM ADV:REG from command line after boot-up. No difference: "CPU was idle 0% of the time". But after I ran Volkov Commander (yes, from command line of that old FreeCOM) - immediately there was rise on the percentage -- regards, Zbigniew _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
