Howdy netlanders... Wasn't there a thread on this a few weeks back?
I'm having problems with running WordPerfect 5.1 under Vp/ix 1.1 on a
Dell 325 running Dell Unix 1.0.2 (ISC 2.0.2). When I execute the
program, I get the opening screen with the message:
Can't find WP.FIL file
Then the screen freezes... it doesn't ask for a new path. The only way
out is the "three fingered salute" (CTRL-ALT-DEL).
This occurs when I'm CD'ed into the WP51 directory where the WP.FIL is
located (and where the setup file says it is). The WP{WP}.SET file
apparently has nothing to do with it....I don't even think it gets read
in before it locks up.
I have tried putting the WP51 directory on both a mounted DOS partition
and a Unix partition.... no difference.
Anyone else found/fixed this one?
