- To any links386 fans out there:
-
- I am running a 386-40 with links386 on my hard drive.
- Anytime I attempt to play, the game hangs up before it even
- reaches the title screen. I am using Norton DOS as my shell and
- the NCache program from Norton Utilities 6.01 on my hard drive.
- However, even when I disable NDOS and NCache (boot from floppy
- and just use MS-DOS 5.0) I then get the following message:
-
- Memory Protection Fault
- CS:EIP 000Fh:0003B7E8h
-
- after I try to run golf.bat. I do have an ethercard installed
- in IRQ5, but some of my friends also use the same card and
- LINKS runs beautifully on their systems.
- Other information that might help:
- I ran the test.vesa program and my video card works
- perfectly. I also have a MediaVision Thunderboard installed on
- IRQ2, but that hasn't given me problems with any other games.
- The techie at the co. where I purchased my system suggested
- removing the ethercard, but I don't need the trouble of
- reinstalling it. I would appreciate any help offered.
-
- Please send responses to rad5h@Virginia.edu
-
- Thanks
