DESCRIPTION

When playing midi files, the timing is off. This occurs in the Calkwalk 
v2.0 application, and is also be found in other windows sequencers 
(midisoft).

RESOLUTION

Setting the TimerMaxRes statements in the SYSTEM.INI file to 1 resolves
much of this problem, but there are still slowdowns when the disk is 
being accessed. This is due to the preemptive multitasking under OS/2 
and because priority is given to disk access.

This is a permanent restriction under the current release. Development 
is working to resolve this problem for future releases.
