-
- WINDOWS WON'T START AFTER INSTALLING PATCH:
- Try removing the DEVICE=VFATHLP.386 line from the Windows SYSTEM.INI file.
- If Windows will start after removing this line, then you are not using Windows

- that is not identical to the release version. Leave the line out and you can
- continue to use Windows normally.
- Try removing both the DEVICE=VFATHLP.386 and DEVICE=CP32SUP.386 lines from
- the Windows SYSTEM.INI file. If Windows will now start, leave the lines out
- and continue to use Windows normally. This patch is incompatible with your
- Windows or system configuration.
