- Hello,
-
- since I have installed DR DOS 6.0 (formerly MS DOS 4.01) I cannot
- leave Geoworks (1.1) in a normal way. Most of the time I get
- a white box (Division by 0) with the option to leave "normal".
- If I do so, the box disappears but the DOS-Prompt does not
- appear. If I enter <ctrl-alt-del>, the computer does NOT boot,
- but I get the DOS-prompt.
- A less replicable error occurs when saving a file under a
- different name (from Geowrite). Sometimes the above procedure
- happens.
- As I had never a problem with MS DOS, I suspect a problem with
- DR-DOS. I have removed all questionable entries from config.sys,
- including FASTOPEN and EMM386. This was requested by my distributor,
- but it didn't help.
-
- Can someone give me a clue what is going on?
-
- Best regards,
-
- Michael Hermann
