Which version of 3.14 do you use (the 'full' version or one of the
'lite' versions) ? With my plain old MSDOS3.3 PC with various TSR's
loaded (and thus not much free memory) I cannot PUSH or RUN commands
from within the full version of kermit (KERMIT.EXE) giving more or
less the same error message you have. The medium one (KERMITE.EXE)
let's me go to whatever command processor I'm running (including 4dos).
If you don't need the graphic or network capabilities of MSK you might
wanna try the medium version (KERMITE.EXE). If that works Desqview
probably doesn't leave enough free memory for your Kermit session to
run both the full version AND a spawned command processor.
Note that memory usage of 3.14 (full version) is a bit more than that of
3.13.
