Hi
Just updated our hardware & operating system to Windows 2000 Professional. Am currently running on an NT 4.0 server w/ sp5 and using NT lhservice. Win 95 & 98 have worked OK in past. Put on Win 2000 Prof and cpu utilization peaks @100% when running AREV even runs at this level in a minimized state. Can not multitask with MS apps or anything else for that matter. Am I missing a setting in properties or something??? Any one else seen or found a solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

If you're running AREV 3.12, from the sysprog account, set the "Yield time to Windows" flag.
The Windows shortcut for AREV should have the following settings
If you still have performance problems you can try Steve Smith's CPUPLUS utility - Email steve@state-of-the-art.com.au for an evaluation copy.

I thank you for your help. Have set up our shortcuts as noted. Was unaware and can not find any documentation regarding "yield time to Windows" flag in the sysprog account. Assume that it is a startup flag similar to /X /Mxxxx? Again, thank you for your help.

From DOS:
AREV SYSPROG
In menus:
Options - Workstation - Workstation
Set "Yield time to Windows"=Yes
Save and restart AREV.

Thank You for your help. Did note that somehow I missed the upgrade path from 3.10 & stopped there which might explain the differences in SYSPROG regarding the Workstation set-up. Have contacted Steve Smith for a shot at his utility.
Thanks Again

If your still getting very high CPU utilization then consider running CPUPlus.
