- I just installed a 286 BB in my A3000 and everything seems to work except that
- the program PCDISK doesn't run correctly.
-
- If I boot from the 1.3 installation disk (WB 1.3/KS 2.0) PCDISK seems to work ok,
- but when I boot my normal system, I start PCDISK from s:startup-sequence (after
- the Binddrivers is done) and this shows up in a Status command but trying an
- AWRITE from the pc side complains that the PCDISK server needs to be run.
-
- I had some problems early on because I was using the SKSH JM program and this
- seems to cause the PC MONO/PC COLOR programs to hang. Once I stopped running this
- the pc window came up and everything was fine. In order to eliminate any possible
- conflicts I may have caused, I commented out the user-startup call from
- startup-sequence and ran PCDISK by hand, the same problem still occurs.
-
- The Janus software is pre A3000 from 1989, has there been any updates for wb 2.0?
-
-
- Thanx in advance.
