I am having trouble with C&C dropping it's connection while playing against a 
friend over the modem.  It will run fine for between 5 min and 30 min but then 
it gives and error (to us both) saying that the other machine has stopped 
responding.

System info
Both of us are running C&C 1.19P
System 1: Pentium 60mz w/ 16M RAM running Win95, US Robotics Sportster using 
AT&M0&K0 for init when calling (have tried ATZ)
System 2: 486 66mz w/8M RAM running DOS 6.2, Hayes modem using ATZ when calling

We got it to work once when we where both playing GDI but never when we played 
different sides.
  Any help would be appreciated.
    Mike
