7368.0. "PW 6.0, Async DECnet, Win 3.1 VXD partner exited" by VMSNET::L_GULICK (Lew Gulick) Wed Mar 19 1997 00:32

Customer has:

	486 notebook 
	DOS 6.2
	Win 3.1
	PCMCIA Hayes modem card
	16550 UART
	PATHWORKS for DOS and Windows V6.0
	Async DECnet configuration

She runs startnet, uses sethost to connect to a VAX server/router, switches
line to DDCMP, etc., and everything works fine from DOS.  She can connect
to network drives and send data both ways.

When she starts Windows, she gets the message:

	Unexpected error while switching on DLLASYNC 
	VXD partner exited

Network drives are disconnected, no new ones can be made in Windows.

Speed 9600 or 2400 makes no difference.  Control panel - network shows 
pw 4.1 and the V6 connection interface.  

Anybody ever see this or know what it might be?

Update on this:

Actual error message is:

	Unexpected error while switching on DLLASYNC VXD partner

There is a stars article which points to setting:

        -Click on the MAIN groupbox                                           
          -->'Control Panel'                                                  
             -->'Enhanced'                                                    
                -->'Device Contention: Never Warn'                            

This has been done with no change.

Also found that the PCMCIA card is a Hayes Optima 28.8 V.34+FAX
and requires a driver in config.sys called EZBAUD.

What is the dllasync vxd partner referring to?
