Introduction
------------
When you start Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 on an Ambra
computer, your system may stop responding (hang) at the password
dialog box or in Program Manager (if you set your password to null
during Setup). The WG0974 disk included with this Application Note
contains a new virtual keyboard driver to correct this problem.
To install the new VKDA.386 file
--------------------------------
1. Insert the enclosed WG0974 disk in the appropriate floppy disk
drive.
2. To copy the file to the Windows SYSTEM subdirectory, type the
following at the MS-DOS command prompt and then press ENTER
copy <drive>:\vkda.386 <destination>
where <drive> is the floppy disk drive containing the WG0974 disk
and <destination> is the drive and directory of your Windows SYSTEM
subdirectory.
For example, if the WG0974 disk is in drive A and your Windows
directory is called WINDOWS and is on drive C, type the following
at the MS-DOS command prompt and then press ENTER:
copy a:\vkda.386 c:\windows\system
3. Use a text editor to edit the keyboard= entry in the [386Enh]
section of the SYSTEM.INI file. Change
keyboard=*vkd
to:
keyboard=c:\windows\system\vkda.386
