- I have norton desktop for Windows 3.0 and the same thing happens,
- NDW.EXE caused a GPF in module ULTRASND.DRV at 0001:AA6F
-
- I tried Progman and it works (well almost) the startup wave has got clips and
- breaks, but after the startup wav all is fine ! I dun like it, so i've gone
- back to the v3.11 disk, windows drivers (i only copied the *.drv and the *.386
- driver files back in, all else is new... like v3.53 mixer, patch manager etc.)
- the old drivers work perfrectly on my WFWG 3.11 system.
-
- I have emailed Gravis several times at tech@gravis.com, got no reply so far...

- All of these GUS breakdowns may be because of INSTGRPS running. Try getting
- it out of system.ini. In addition, there could be a problem with the DMA
- buffers - they sure killed my startup sound! I just took them down from
- 4096 to 2048 and presto, smooth as butter.
- Try finding the place where they're mentioned and changing it by hand is may
- advice.
- As for the Acer hanging - try removing the -dj switch from ultrinit. It may
- crash older revision GUSses, just like it did to my 2.4.
- HTH,
- Yossi.
- PS I'm using Windows 3.11 with Multi-Lingual support.
