First of all, when Win98 boots, it will cycle the RST line to high,
low, high, low Period! If the line then goes high, it is in response
to a seperate program being run, not Windows. Although the time
between cycles is very short, you can hook up a VTVM and watch it if
you want. The point is Win98 will leave the line low. As to what
program is causing it to go high again, that's anyones guess, and it
very well may be that neither WL nor Voice Key is the culprit.
