About a week ago or so I posted a plea for help with a problem I had running Microsoft CodeView in MSC 5.1 on an IBM AT. Well, the problem - which was that the computer would hang on the first "printf()" staement encountered - turned out to be due to an interaction between CodeView and the my Everex Micro Enhancer Deluxe EV-657 graphics adapter. Flipping the state of dipswitch #6 (whose function is undocumented, except for a comment on page 43 of the manual which states that setting the switch will prevent Microsoft "Decathlon" from hanging the computer!) fixes all. Thank-you to the two people who sent me what they hoped were helpful suggestions; this time the net struck out. --- Rob Tow Member Research Staff Electronic Document Lab Xerox PARC 3333 Coyote Hill Drive Palo Alto, CA 94304 (415)-494-4807
