SUMMARY

The enhanced Wait command included with hDC's Power version 1.0 may cause your system to stop (hang) when run with Windows version 3.1. This problem does not occur with Power Launcher version 2.0 or with Windows.

MORE INFORMATION

The problem is not with Windows 3.1, but with hDC's use of an undocumented Windows call. hDC's incorrect use of this function goes unnoticed under Windows 3.0, but fails under Windows 3.1.

hDC corrected this problem in version 2.0 of their Power Launcher product.

The hDC product included here is manufactured by a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
