    	Hi, ref QuickLink......uh!
    
    
    	OK, so it's not just me.   I hated it on my old 486, ran fine in
    DOS, and like doo-doo in 3.1.  I just bought a new system, and was
    very disappointed to see it come with the system.  The modem is a
    US Robotics 33.6 voice.
    
    	.11 says WinFax for send and FaxPro for receive.
    	.13 says WinFax.
    
    	What I want is a robust all around piece of fax/modem/voice
    software. 
    	
    	Ideally with the voice, I would like to go to multiple levels on
    each voicebox.  That is, if you listen to the first level of choices,
    say, chose #2, and then you get e.g. 4 more choices inside #2.  Is this
    possible?  Is there any SW out there that can do this?  If not, then my
    next choice would be SW that gives a large number of voiceboxes avail.
    
    	Another question.  Fooling around with the system yesterday, I
    brought up the system monitor and starting watching CPU utilization.
    Whenever the QLink FAX MANAGER was started, CPU util. went to 100%
    and stayed there.  Also, if I started the QLink program to look at/send
    a fax, again it went to 100%.  If I used the modem to hook to the
    internet, it would go to 100% for a short time, and then drop to
    expected lower levels.  The question is why does QLink do this?  (Other
    than being a POS?)
    
    	Glen(n)  (who can't believe a company like USR would stoop to using
    		  SW like QL!!!)

    re .18
    
    CPU usage goes to 100% because QLII is a 16-bit program and uses a
    polling loop for input.

1144.20SuperVoice V2 or higher might workNEWVAX::PAVLICEKStop rebooting! Use LinuxMon Apr 28 1997 15:1713
    re: .18
    
    SuperVoice V2 or later may be able to do the combined voice/fax/data
    work that you need; I don't know for sure.
    
    I have SuperVoice V1 on the DOS/Windows 3.1 side of my box and it
    doesn't do all that you want, but I've heard that V2 might do it.
    I don't know how well it deals with W95.
    
    There is a note somewhere in here on that subject; the conversation was
    around a year or so ago, I think.
