I have VP/ix 1.2 running under SCO Unix 3.2.0 kernel id 1.91 and Maint. Sup A running on an 80386 machine. I am trying to load Windows 3.0. However, during the second diskette (I am installing from 3 in. diskettes) everything crashes out with a General Protection Fault, Cannot emulate instruction message. I am then dumped back to the Unix prompt. HELP!!!! -- ||| Marcel D. Mongeon ||| e-mail: ... (uunet, maccs)!joymrmn!root or ||| joymrmn!marcelm
