I just purchased a new motherboard/processor (Asus TX-97 with a
K6-200) and it's divine! Well, almost perfect except for one little
problem.... All my old software works except for Kermit. It worked great
for years, all I did was change the motherboard, and now whenever I start
it, all I get is a one line message :
Divide overflow
Then it goes back to dos.
Kermit is the last thing I would have expected to have this
problem with. How in the world can changing a motherboard/processor cause
this to happen????
1). Could it be that the K6 isn't 100% compatible with the Intel
chips?
2). Could a faulty or misconfigured Asus TX-97 cause this?
3). Does Kermit just have problems running on newer processors?
I even re-installed Kermit, still no luck. And my modem is
working fine with the Windows terminal program....
