Are you running DOS Programs?

If you run DOS programs, you have probably noticed that the DOS program will take over the CPU. This can be devastating in a multi-user environment such as Microsoft Terminal Server or Citrix Metaframe. A dual processor machine can slow to a crawl with just a few users.

Tame allows you to efficiently run DOS programs

Tame has a long history of solving this problem. Tame will monitor all the DOS applications that are running on the system, and allocate CPU resources efficiently so that applications that need the CPU resources--get them.

Tame can automatically detect appropriate settings for most applications so that the system runs as smoothly as possible with the least amount of effort. Just load the Tame program in the DOS session, and Tame takes care of the rest.

Tame improves compatibility of DOS applications

Some applications have expectations that are not met in a multi-user system, or behave in a way that causes problems. Tame can provide an isolation layer to solve problems like this. Here is a partial list of problems that DOS programs run into. Tame solves these problems and many others.

bulletApplication changes the system date
bulletApplication forces the console to full screen mode
bulletApplication uses file locks excessively
bulletOnly one user at a time can start the application
bulletPrinting is delayed, or does not start until you exit the application
bulletApplication depends on BIOS services that are not implemented

If your DOS application seems to be incompatible with the multi-user system, Tame may help. If your problem is not currently addressed by Tame, please let me know. The list is not etched in stone...
