I also have a T-1000 laptop, and I was never actually able to get NOS to
run on it.  The error message I received was "Panic: Interrupts were off!"
My guess was that the laptop was going to sleep, which is not conducive to
correct operation by communication software.

You can set up the T-1000 either to boot DOS 2.11 from ROM or whatever
version you want from floppy.  DOS 3.30 works well, in fact, but did not
seem to affect NOS one way or the other.

The easy way out was that I discovered NET1H worked fine on the T-1000,
so I never invested a lot of effort.  Besides, the T-1000 comes standard
with only 512K memory, and NOS will barely fit into it.

I do not have the same kind of trouble with communications software other
than NOS.  My T-1000 has the built-in MHz modem option, and I use Procomm
Plus 2.01 with no trouble.  The only other software I ever use on the
laptop is Lotus 1-2-3 2.01 and WordStar 3.3, both of which work fine.
