[comp.windows.ms] WfW problems and advice on Tektronics 4014 emulation

fdq@athena.mit.edu (Fred D Quintana) (03/27/91)

Hi.  

	I have been having some pretty major problems with WfW.  It simply
doesn't run.  Usually it has crashed within 5 minutes of startup and sometimes
it crashes even quicker than that (immediately upon startup.)  Does anyone
have any ideas as to why this is happening or has this happened to anyone
else? My configuration is as follows:

	386sx w/ AMI Bios and NEAT C&T Chipset
	5 megs ram configured as extended
	Seagate SCSI drives and controller
	

I even eliminated all TSRs (except for himem.sys) before starting windows but
it still didn't work.  I have no clue as to why this is happening.  It crashes
every now and then normally, but its performance with WfW is just pitiful.
Oh, by the way.  What I mean by crashed is that I suddeny see the MS-DOS
prompt and windows is no longer running.  It didn't flash an error message or
anything: it just kicked me right out of windows.


	I also have another question concerning communitions packages.  Does
anyone know where I might find a package that will emulate the Tektronics 4014
display?


Thanks!
