Problem(s) this Update Resolves:
================================
When you are starting Windows 95 OSR2, OSR2.1, or OSR2.5 on a computer with an
AMD-K6-2 processor running at speeds of 350 MHz and above, you may receive one
of the following error messages:
Device IOS failed to initialize. Windows Protection Error.
You must reboot your computer.
Windows Protection Error. You must reboot your computer.
The first error is a result of a divide exception in IOS.VXD, the second is due
to a similar error within ESDI_506.PDR or SCSIPORT.PDR.
This problem is very intermittent at 350MHz, but occurs more often at higher
speeds. Note that it is necessary to reboot the computer after the error occurs.
If the error does not occur, the system will run normally.
Additionally, if you are using Microsoft Backup to back up data to certain models
of floppy disk drives, you may receive the following error messages:
Warning: Tape needs to be erased before operation can proceed.
Microsoft Backup unable to read from the disk or network drive. Quit and
restart Backup, and then try again.
Warning: This operation has been canceled by the system.
