- This file contains some technical information on DFE.
-
- If you are using EMM386 and wish to use the Sound Blaster WAD sound player,
- you will want to add D=64 to the command line of EMM386.EXE in your
- config.sys file. This will prevent EMM386 from crashing on you when you
- attempt to play a sound that is greater than 32k in length. Note for SCSI
- users: you may already have the D= parameter set for EMM386, as long as
- this number is 64 or greater, it does not need to be changed.
-
- If you have a copy of DFE 3.00 and you are using a Novell Network, STOP!!!
- Use 3.10 instead. I was not thinking when I wrote the loader program for
- DFE 3.00. Its loader uses what is probably the most crutial interrupt in
- Novells API for itself. 3.10 corrects this problem.
-
- There is still one known conflict with DFE: It is not compatible with
- DoubleDos (Not DoubleSpace!). DoubleDos is a multitasking addition to DOS
- similiar to DesqView.
-
- MS Windoze users: DFE is not designed to be executed under windows! It will
- for the most part work corretly, but certian features, such as IPXFER and
- the Sound Player, are very much DOS oriented. I have receive comments that
- IPXFER will cause problems with Windows 3.11 for Work Groups and will some
- times cause problems with other LAN (Novell, etc) operations under windows.
-
- For most functions of DFE, a mouse is required, This includes the Map viewing
- options. The ExeHacker does not require a mouse, but it is HIGHLY recoomended
- that you use one.
