- Print Screen , DV 2.26 date 03-13-90
-
- DV 2.26 should be better on the whole in doing PrtSc than DV 2.25. However, we
- notice a problem on some systems whereby, when you hit PrtSc in DV (this may
- happen in versions earlier than 2.26 as well), garbage appears both on screen
- and on the printout. It should be fixed by the version after the 3-9-90 2.26.
-
-
- To fix this problem using debug:
- --------------------------------
-
- 1. Make a copy of DV.EXE somewhere on the hard disk, in
- case the patch doesn't work.
-
- 2. Rename the DV.EXE file on drive A: to DV.XXX.
-
- 3. Run "DEBUG A:DV.XXX"
-
- 4. At the "dash" prompt, type "S 100 L F000 5A 6E" and hit {Enter}.
- DEBUG will display two numbers, separated by a colon, such as 25C6:85D3.
- (If these numbers don't show up have typed something wrong. Type "Q" to
- exit and start again.)
-
- 5. Type "E" followed by a space and the numbers from step 4, and hit {Enter}.
-
- Example: "E 2586:85D3" {Enter}
-
-
- 6. Immediately type "4E" followed by a space, then "AC"
-
-
- 7. After hitting the {Enter}, you will get the "dash" prompt
- again. Type "W" and {Enter} to write out the change. And "Q" to
- quit.
-
- 8. Rename the DV.XXX file back to DV.EXE
-
- 9. Copy this DV.EXE file back into your active DESQview directory.
-
-
- It's possible that some unusual BIOS's (like that on the Everex Step 386/25?)
- might not handle the new PrtSc handling. This two-byte patch to the 1-11-90
- DV 2.26 should correct the problem.
