Maybe I am spoiled by Unix and other Multi-Tasking OSs. I get annoyed
with periodic frozen PC ( no more BREAK, Ctl_C, Ctl_Alt_Del ). Looking
for others with broader experience than just a DTK386. Do others PCs
freeze up as often ?
Finally deserted using WP5.1 with QEMM, PeachTree III often dies, misc
programs, perhaps with sole exeption of Kermit-MS, all die now and then
and I cant get a handle on it .. my environment is as below.
Does anything jump out at any of you, video card, disk ctlr, ... . Usually
have QEMM386 in and a few items stuffed in hi mem though I seem to be able
to have problems even with CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC completely vanilla. My
problems are the same with 4DOS in or out.
+ DTK - PEM-2000 ( 8/20 MH 386 ) FastET20 MotherBd
w/ 1 par & 2 ser on bd channels, 1MB DRAM (4x256kbit), 80ns, extended 384
2-32bit ( one or two wait memory ), 5-16bit, 1-8bit slots
+ DTK BIOS
+ DM3088A Mono - Herc Graphics card (720x348, TTL, 6845 CRTC)
+ DTC7287 Disk Controller, DTK, 2-HD, 2-FD
+ MK134 Hard Disk, Toshiba, 66 MB, RLL
+ floppy 1.44MB, Toshiba
+ floppy 1.2MB, Teac
Since added Jumbo 120 with separate controller card. Problems before this
addition.
Thanks in advance, /Ev/
