One thing to remember is to make sure you you don't have any extra device drivers loaded when playing multi-player Doom! NEVER load SMARTDRV.EXE or any memory managers such as EMM386.EXE. The best way to defeat this is to make a Boot Disk. You can also go into your CONFIG.SYS & AUTOEXEC.BAT files and put a REM_ in from of a command that need not be loaded. Here is an example REM C:\DOS\SMARTDRV.EXE REM C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE *** You WILL NEED to reboot your computer once you alter your CONFIG.SYS & AUTOEXEC.BAT files. You can then change them back, and re-boot when you are finished playing. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Even if you have a fast computer, whether it be a DX2/66 or a Pentium, you should still run Modem Doom/Doom2 off of a "clean" boot, as this will make the game run at it's maximum! Using SMARTDRIVE may not matter when you are playing alone, but makes a HUGE difference when you are playing via modem!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------- =================================================================== HERE IS A LIST OF THE BEST STRINGS TO USE FOR MODEM DOOM/DOOM2! =================================================================== Aceex 14.4 v.42bis fax AT &F &D2 &C1 \N0 Acer 9624 int AT &F &D2 &C1 &Q0 Acubit 14.4 fax v32 AT Z S37=9 %C0 \N1 Adtech SmartConnect 9624 AT &F &D2 &C1 \N0 AMT Star 14.4 2F AT &F &D2 &C1 \N0 AMT Star 8624i AT &F &D2 &C1 \N0 Anchor Automation 9600 AT &F &D2 &C1 \N0 Anchor Automation 96i AT &F &D2 &C1 \N0 Archtek Smartlink AT &F &D2 &C1 Archtek Smartlink 14.4I AT &F &D2 &C1 \N0 \Q0 AT&T 4024 AT &F &D2 &C1 AT&T Data Port 14.4 FaxM.
