- I have a few problems with the PC286.
-
- 1. The Configure-software on the Amiga-side does /not/ like OS3.1
- I have version 1.01 and would like to know if there is any newer
- ( or other ) of the Configure software that will work with OS3.1 ?
- Changing the ROM to 2.04 ( without a ROM-switch ) for a quick change
- of prefs, is a pain in the neck. :/
- Or if you know the format of the pc286.cfg, I could make my own
- editor in Arexx.
- ( Further testing gives 80000004 GURU's, and it seems to corrupt
- the display before crashing. Tried /all/ cpu-settings. Njet.
- Also tried to boot in native displaymode i.e. no Super-Denise.
- Nada. I do not have a MMU and cannot run Enforcer. )
-
- 2. I have tried to install both DOS 6.2, Windows 3.1 and other progs on
- it, but there seems to be something wrong with the emulation.
- Crashes after reading large files it seems like.
- Just a moment ... ( A reboot / pc start later )
- I've got a 3.00 bios, and have set it up to boot with a CGA
- screen, and have choosen 640 kb RAM + 3 megs of extended RAM.
- ( My Amy got 1,5 CHIP / 8 FAST )
-
- I've tried numerous settings of RAM-size to no avail. :(
- I've also tried /all/ cache settings on the '030. Nix.
-
- 3. HELP! :)
