- I have a wierd problem I cannot figure out.
-
- I'm running DR-DOS 6.0 on a 486sx/25. Occasionally(2 or 3 times a day)
- when switching in/out of applications, the screen suddenly goes into a
- 40 column mode then says 'Parity Error. Press Any Key'.
-
- The machine is then stuck and I'm forced to reboot.
-
- If you have experienced similar problem and have found a solution for
- it, I would very much be interested in hearing from you.
-
- Thanks.
