Does anyone know if CodeView for Windows 3.0 (CVW) is supposed to show up
on both the 8514 and the VGA monitor? (I am running it on a PS/2 system.)
Also, I don't know if I am doing something wrong or not, but whenever I
move the mouse, the screen just sort-of flashes. I cannot seem to use any
of the options or do anything.

when starting CVW specify the /8 command line parameter. This tells it you have a 8514/A and a VGA installed. Robert Nee

I use:
win cvw /8 appname
and works fine windows in the 8514 and cvw in the vga monitor.

Are you running your 8514 card with the vga drivers, I think from what I have seen under this situation you would be likely to get cvw on both displays. If this is the case, load the windows 8514 drivers, and make sure that you put the /8 switch on the cvw command line to tell it you have an 8514/vga setup. You might also want to try /50 to put cvw into a higher resolution. Hope this helps. Gary Hill, gjh@uk.ac.soton.ecs

Our modem went down the day I posted my previous article. There are a number of things to watch out for when using Codeview for Windows with 8514/A mointors. These are, in no particular order:- 1. Windows must be set up to for 8514/A mode with the setup program. If you don't do this, the system will crash when you try to use Codeview. 2. You must specify /8 on the Codeview command line. Failure to do so will result in a tasteful message box saying there is no second monitor attached. (Why can't it detect the 8514 automatically?) 3. If you are running DOS 4.00, the 43 line mode (/43) will not work in 8514 mode if ANSI.SYS is installed. 4. You may experience problems using the standard retail VGA driver. If this is the case, use the one supplied with the SDK instead. When Codeview is running correctly, the application being debugged is displayed on the 8514, while Codeview uses the other monitor. As far as I know, this is the only way it works. Using Codeview with Microsoft CV6.0 PWB on my PS/2 70, I have found that you cannot debug applications from within PWB. Also, on one occasion, running Windows from within PWB trashed my hard disc when exiting Windows. I hope this is of help.
