Just to let you know that it is working now. It was weird, I had to install 
Win32s manually (from the changes it made on my desktop's SYSTEM.INI). It 
seems to be running fine. I'll let you know if I encounter problems in the 
future. The setup program provided in the .ZIP file doesn't work with the TP 
(at least in my case).

BTW, I read (I think in the FAQ) that 32 bit access worked fine, but in my 
case it is kind of flaky, I don't remember exactly what the problems were,  
but it was crashing my system (hybernation or suspend?). Other than that the 
machine works fine, it is currently running Windows and OS/2 for WIN, 
although I have to change SYSTEM.INI depending on which environment I am 
going to work. 

My machines's setup is:
        TP750 Cs w/12 MB. RAM
        340 HD
        MHZ Xjack  14.4 modem (the older one)

        It is a workhorse, and with SLIP, it connects without a glitch  to 
the Internet. All the shareware WINSOCK programs run, and the MHZ. modem has 
never given me any problems.

Thanks,

Bernardo
