If Power Management is enabled on your computer, you may want to disable this feature. It has been verified under Windows 95 that with Power Management enabled ViewRunner will eventually be unable to communicate through the Ethernet port. With Power Management disabled, this does not occur. In Windows 95, you can select the Power Icon in the Control Panel, and uncheck the "Allow Windows to Manage power use on this computer" option.
