NOTE: To 8087-2 users working with Microsoft Compilers
An incompatibility with the non-maskable interrupt handler will
cause the machine to hang when running programs that detect 8087
exceptions, e.g. Divide by Zero, Square Root of a negative
number. Entering the following code in the Debugger will remedy
the problem. You will be notified of a more permanent fix, when
available, if you return the card below.
Enter the following commands:
DEBUG <CR>
Oa0,80 <CR>
Q <CR>
This command must be re-entered each time the PC 6300 is
booted, or when the reset button has been pushed. A soft
re-boot, CNTL-ALT-DEL, will NOT require the command to be
re-entered.
<CR> means to press the RETURN key.
The DEBUG program may be found on the MS-DOS Supplemental
Programs Diskette supplied with the MS-DOS Users Guide.
