- Hi,
-
- Why do I get the message 'Parity Error ???? System Halted' in 40-column
- mode when I run certain softwares like Windows 3.0 in standard mode but not
- Windows 3.1 and Turbo C++? I only get this message after installing a math
- co-processor i387SX-20. My system, a notebook, is a 386SX-20 with AMI
- BIOS.
-
- Does anyone know the cause(s) of this error message?
-
- Thanks for any help.
- Happy 1993
