Am involved with a Validator 50 with MM3 and Datapage that was recently upgraded to Windows 95. Whenever MM3 is started under Windows 95, it says "OFFLINE". I've checked the com port settings and changed the W95 settings for them to match the MM3 settings but still no luck. The user of this machine says the Validator and Windows 95 seem to fight for control of the computer with the machine usually winning. Can't they just get along?

Also, any idea on how to get Datapage to work under 95? If boot to the command prompt, the ansi.sys driver will load and it will run. If 05 is allowed start, if you run Datapage, the ansi codes show and it's basically non functional. how can we get windows 95 to allow ansi.sys to work? Any help is appreciated.
