[comp.windows.ms] DOS applications in 386enh mode

py@meadow.uucp (Peter Yeung) (04/15/91)

I used to have 2Meg of memory and once in a while the system would hang
with the "Cannot load command.com" messge. I was rold that 2Meg is real
tight for running 386ehn mode, I added another 3Meg this weekend and got
something different:

   I opened a couple of DOS applications. Then I opended ProcommPlus
   and everything seemed to go fine until I exited from ProcommPlus.
   When I exited from procommPlus, I was hit with the "System integrity
   violated" error. Any ideas? Other applications are Brief and something
   not too exotic (i.e. no XMS/EMS stuff).

What can cause a "System integrity violation" error? I went to the
book stores today and went over all books related to Windows 3.
I tried to look up anything pointed to it and could not find a thing.
BTW, most of those books are just rehash of the Windows 3 User Guide with
about 1 or 2 useful hints per chapter at best and none in some.
