[comp.windows.ms] UAE: in SDK, I can reproduce it!

pcb@basin04.cacs.usl.edu (Peter C. Bahrs) (03/04/91)

I finally am able to consistently reproduce a UAE !! unbelievable!

sdkpaint.exe
  select new
  select icon
           4PL 16 colors 21x32
  then select open
  save? (y/n) select no
  the select an icon file
  retain current image? no
  an empty box comes up, select ok
    UAE

  in real mode, UAE doesn't occur but the programs window is trashed
    with bad characters.

There are a couple of other wierd things that happen if you vary
the last couple of selections.  

So, I haven't felt this good since I trapped a virus on a diskette (great
for demonstrations: the one where screen characters pile up at the bottom
of the screen).

sdkpaint.exe is part of SDK from microsoft.....TESTING!

I heard that some of the current military arsenal (as displayed in the 
KTO) was run by 386 pcs.  I bent none of them were running any 
version windows.
      !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
