- Hi,
-
- I am wondering if anyone else has experienced the following problems
- and, if so, if you can suggest work arounds for them.
-
- 1) When I open up a DOS Fullscreen (or Window) session, and try to run
- SIMPC (a Comm program I need to use for work) the session dies on a
- System 1376 (illegal intruction).
-
- I had this problem immediately after installing the CSD when trying to
- Loadhigh Borland's Sidekick (v. 1.56a). I was able to get around this
- by loading it into conventional memory.
-
- I simply can't get SIMPC to work. I have boot manager and can us it in
- Native DOS, but this is a little cumbersome.
-
- 2) My OS2SYS.INI file has been growing like crazy. When I installed the
- CSD it was sitting at around 300+ K. Now it is about 5.5 Megs and still
- growing!
-
- My system is a '486-33 DX (Intel)
- with 16 Megs RAM
- 200 Meg hard drive - 30 Meg FAT partition
- 170 Meg HPFS Partition
- 3 1/2" HD A: drive
- 5 1/4" HD B: drive
- 2400 baud Zoom Modem on Com1
- 14.4 Kbaud USR sportster on Com2
- ATI Wonder XL with 1 meg Ram & Mouse on IRQ 5
- Roland DG PR-1011 printer on LPT1
- Roland MPU-IPC (Midi board)
-
- Please, any help would be appreciated.
