Are you running in DOS or in a DOS console under windows?

If you are running in DOS, you could write a TSR. Run one task in the TSR and the other on the console. Not a very good option as TSRs are difficult to debug.

If you are running on a DOS console under windows, you may be able to access the threading functions. I know you can on Watcom C/C++ 11.0 but I don't know about TurboC++ 3.0. Have a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...inthreadex.asp
