> Has anyone used the multi mode feature of TR in Windows? Both computers work ok by themselves, but they won't link. One is win 95, the other is win xp. I always use DOS, (single op), but I need to do a multi op using windows if possible. Reason why, is long story.

XP does present TR with challenges - as I think you are running in a 
virtual machine instead of having direct access to the IO ports.  This
will make it hard to TR to work.

You can try using DIRECTIO - do a web search.  This program essentailly 
ties the virtual machine to the hardware and should enable you to make it
work.  Make sure you are in a maximimzed window - or have twiddled with
the settings to make sure the DOS window is getting full attention.  

If asked to send CW - it will probably sound bad, but most everything
else might work.  

Or - put a DOS disk in the floppy.
