IBM ThinkPad October 25, 1996 Mwave DSP Features Diskette for Windows 95 #1, #2, and #3 Version 2.22 ========================================== What These Diskettes Do ----------------------- The Mwave DSP Features Diskette for Windows 95 #1, #2, and #3 provides the Mwave features for Windows 95. Supported Models ---------------- 1) The following ThinkPad computers equipped with the Mwave features: - ThinkPad 755CE, 755CD, 755CSE, 755CV, 755CDV, and 755CX - ThinkPad 760C, 760CD, 760E, and 760ED 2) For the following ThinkPad computers with Windows 95 installed and plug and play supported, the BIOS date must be no earlier than January 1996. - ThinkPad 755CE, 755CD, 755CSE, 755CV, 755CDV, and 755CX Summary of Change ----------------- Key: Diskette version (for example, 1.00 means Version 1.00) (New) New function or enhancement (Fix) Correction to existing function (Restriction) Remaining restriction <2.22> - (Fix) Connectivity to some modems that violate V.34 specifications has improved. - (Fix) The audio problem of not being able to play some wave files when using the 28800 modem is fixed in Windows 3.1 and Windows 95. - (New) An uninstall function has been added along with improvements to the installation. - (New) For a DOS/Windows 3.1 environment, the Mwave DOS and Windows installations and directories have been combined. Therefore, support for "DOS only system" is dropped. - (New) An Mwave-written application "Mwave Quick Tests" has been included, which helps you isolate problems quickly. - (Fix) The board driver has been modified to fix a general protection fault (GPF) problem during suspend mode. - (Fix) The problem of some wave files of a particular frequency not playing has been fixed. - (Fix) Some Class 1 fax fixes have been included. - (Restriction) The modem name in Windows 95 has changed slightly to "ThinkPad 28.8 Data Fax VOD Modem." This can cause the Windows 95 dialer program or other Windows 95 applications to not recognize the modem. Correct this by going to the Dialing properties of the application and changing the modem name to the new Mwave modem name. - (Restriction) The shutdown and "Exit to DOS" option from the Start button in Windows 95 will fail if Mwave release 2.22 is installed over the previous preload. The fix for this is to locate the "Exit to DOS" pif file in the Windows directory and edit the file to change references to the MWD directory to MWW and change the Mwave board driver to MWD50430.EXE. - (Restriction) Some games may require the SET BLASTER statement to include a T3 parameter to get sound. - (Restriction) The "Exit to DOS Mode" used in the preload will not allow the Mwave modem to work because the COM port is not in the BIOS data area. Therefore, some applications using Mwave may not work. - (Restriction) The New Zealand World Trade tables do not recognize a dial tone. A patch is available if needed. Installation Guide ------------------ Refer to the "INSTALLATION NOTES" part in the README.TXT file in the Mwave DSP Features Diskette for Windows 95 #1. Note: If you install the Mwave feature in your ThinkPad computer for the first time, you also need to install the Mwave DSP Features Diskette for MIDI, #1 (for Windows), #2, #3, #4, #5, and #6.
