- Using the ETEN Card Series on a 386
- -----------------------------------
- If you are using the ETEN card series on a 386 system,
- and are using a memory manager, add an EXCLUDE parameter to
- the memory manager DEVICE statement in the CONFIG.SYS file.
- Be sure to do this so the memory manager doesn't use the
- memory area required by the ETEN Chinese system card. The range
- of memory addresses depends on the base address of the Chinese
- card. The exclude parameter format depends on the memory
- manager. See the tables below.
-
- The following table lists the formats for the "EXCLUDE"
- parameters for several popular memory managers.
-
- "EXCLUDE" Parameter
- Product EMM Driver Format
- -------- ----------- -------------------
- QEMM-386 QEMM386.SYS EXCLUDE=<range>
- 386MAX 386MAX.SYS EXCLUDE=<range>
- DR DOS EMM386.SYS EXCLUDE=<range>
- DOS 5 EMM386.EXE X=<range>
- WINDOWS EMM386.EXE X=<range>
-
- The following table lists all the possible memory ranges,
- based on the base address of the Chinese system card.
-
- Base Address <range> to Exclude
- ------------ ------------------
- c000 c000-c1ff
- c200 c200-c3ff
- c400 c400-c5ff
- c600 c600-c7ff
- c800 c800-c9ff
- ca00 ca00-cbff
- cc00 cc00-cdff
- ce00 ce00-cfff
- d000 d000-d1ff
- d200 d200-d3ff
- d400 d400-d5ff
- d600 d600-d7ff
- d800 d800-d9ff
- da00 da00-dbff
- dc00 dc00-ddff
- de00 de00-dfff
-
- If you want to use the UMBs with ETEN Chinese system, card
- series or floppy series, you should also add "EXCLUDE=a000-bfff"
- to your memroy manager's DEVICE statement in the CONFIG.SYS file.
-
- For example, if you are using QEMM-386 and the Chinese system
- card base address is c800, add "EXCLUDE=c800-c9ff" to
- the QEMM386 DEVICE statement in the CONFIG.SYS file.
-
- You can combine the above two EXCLUDE statements into one, and
- the statement becomes
-
- DEVICE=QEMM386.SYS EXCLUDE=a000-c9ff RAM NOEMS (for color) or
-
- DEVICE=QEMM386.SYS EXCLUDE=a000-c1ff RAM NOEMS (for mono)
-
- When you are running ETSETUP, you could choose "AUTO DETECT"
- if ETSETUP want you to identify the ROM-BANK.
