[comp.lang.smalltalk] problems with STV/286 and hercules

I am having a problem with STV/286 on my pc and a EGA/hecules card.
I use to have an EGA screen on the card and I ran STV/286 in EGA mode
without a hitch. Now that I am using a hecules monitor and have switched
the card to hercules mode I am having a number of problems. The test286.exe
program supplied works without a hitch, but when I try to run STV/286
I get a memory parity error of the kind described in the test286.exe program 
when it goes to test the memory above 1Mb. I am using and AST EGA/hecules
card with the Plus option. Can anyone offer any help?
