POSTING FOR A FRIEND - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I am debugging windows applications using the CVW.EXE version of codeview. I am working with a PS/2 model 60. I have an 8513 monitor attatched to the mother board VGA. I have an 8513 monitor attached to an 8514/a adapter installed in slot #7. I have tried to use the "/2" parameter to set codeview to use a secondary monitor to take advantage of the full window mode. The result is that all output stops going to my VGA but nothing goes to the 8513 attached to the 8514. The program continues to run and can be terminated normally. Is there any chance that this will work? Is this the best setup for using codeview? Should I be using the remote terminal instead? Thanks, Scott Burchill - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- Steve Griffin University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Institute for Academic Technology usgrif@ecsvax.uncecs.edu

The PS/2 design allows for all video commands not understood by the VGA adapter to be automically routed to the 8514/a adapter card. This will confuse windows (and codeview). It is interesting that all output to both monitors stops, I would have guessed that output to the VGA would halt, output to the 8514/a would continue. I am assuming that you have installed the correct device drivers in your config.sys for the 8514/a adapter. Dwight Kruger
