- In the later versions of TE/2 there are two commpak2.dll files. Use the one
- with the latest date (mine says 9-10-92 1:02a). The first one has known bugs
- similar to what problems your having. TE/2 worked fine on my machine
- 386/33 PM9600SA modem at 19200. Zmodem and Ymodem. Even when I had the buggy
- commpak dll Ymodem worked for the most part.
