:
: I have tested on notebook(Compaq) and 2 desktops with Win98 SE. Same
: result. It recognize only "Enter" and "Control+C" and I have to kill the
: process "Cntl+Alt+Del" to finish the process.
:
: Summary is as below:
: OS : Win98 SE
: HW : notebook(Compaq Evo N150), 2 Desktops (Local Brand)
: Staring Method:
: start k95 by command in Dos windows.
: start k95 by icon click.
: Symptom:
: I can get "K95>" prompt.
: It recognizes "Enter", "Cntl+C" only.
: "set input echo on" and other commands seems not work
: (I put these command in "K95custom.ini" for test).
:
SET INPUT ECHO ON has nothing to do with echoing your command keystrokes.
: Note:
: Same program with the same configuration works in Win2000.
:
Let's forget all the complicated stuff. No host mode, no customizations,
no .INI files. On your Windows PC, at the real keyboard and screen, open a
command window. CD to the directory where K95 is. Type:
k95 -Y
which starts K95 and tells it not to read its initialization files.
What happens now? Do you see the prompt? Can you type commands?
: Last word. "Frank, I do appreciate for your work".
:
Thanks.
