			Ascentia J Hang and Qaplus 5.29


PROBLEM

After pressing  to see the history log file under Qaplus 5.29 testing, 
the Ascentia J system may hang.


CAUSE

Since the same symptom can be observed on most existing notebooks and 
desktop computers, it is considered an issue of Qaplus 5.29.

This problem does not occur using Qaplus 5.28.


SOLUTION

The failure happens only after pressing  which is trying to see the log 
"file" inside the module test.  

To prevent this failure, please read the log file from the main menu of 
Qaplus 5.29 or from DOS, or use Qaplus 5.28.
