[comp.lang.scheme] Running TI's PC-Scheme on a 486

leverich@randvax.UUCP (Brian Leverich) (06/15/91)

I've had annoying problems trying to run the extended and expanded memory
versions of Texas Instruments' PC-Scheme on a 80486 machine.  (The 640k
version works fine on the 486, and I can run all versions fine on my 386.)

The environment is a generic 486 with all caching disabled, DOS 4.0, QEMM
5.1, VGA, and otherwise a pretty plain vanilla set-up.  The bugs are
rather strange: built-in functions seem to disappear and changing the
order in which some things are done changes the bugs.  The problem seems
to be in accessing memory.

Anyone else had similar problems?  Any suggestions on a cure?  Thanks, B.
