We are running a DOS application in XP from a server on 7 different
computers. When we go to exit or ALT-Tab away from the DOS program, on 2
computers only, we get a black screen and the keyboard freezes. We have to
put these computers to sleep with the sleep button on the keyboard (only key
that works) and then wake them again using the sleep button. After waking
them, we now have to log back onto our domain. This only happens on 2
computers, all seven computers are the same, make, model and keyboards, mice
etc. Very baffling as on the other five, I can alt-tab to my hearts content
with no problems. All systems have been checked to make sure all settings are
the same. In the DOS layout tabs as well as making sure the computers aren't
turning of hard drives, or hibernating or going into sleep mode.
All help is appreciated, I have been searching for a fix for 6 months now.
