Turbo Link 3.0 will not run on XP. 2.13 is DOS based XP does not run on top of DOS. You will have to upgrade to 3.0, but it's well worth the money.

Uh... actually V3.0 WILL run on XP (it was designed to run on Windows 2000/NT/XP as well as Win95/98).

V2.13 gets all upset about XP/NT/2000 due to the way the OS wants you to "play nice" with other apps You can't hog the hardware directly!

To run v2.13, boot from the TurboLink Master Disk (it's bootable) and run off the floppy. If your harddrive has a FAT partition, you can save your runs there (DOS can't see or use NTFS partitions).

Sorry Ken I can't type... I run 3.0 on xp also. I meant 2.13 will not run on xp. Great job with 3.0!!

No problem ... figured it was a typo.

tried it out last nite. worked both ways, booting and running in Xp. but running in xp display was really small, so booting is the way. thanks for the help guys.
