- I am trying to get demacs (gnu emacs for dos) working on a Wyse
- Decisionmate Notebook PC.
-
- I have installed demacs as per the file which comes with demacs, and
- each time I run demacs the machine crashes and reboots. Oddly enough,
- the same thing happens when I run the DOS version of groff.
-
- I have installed himem.sys and ansi.sys.
-
- The support people in the UK for this machine say they guess it is a
- problem with either the cyrix CPU _or_ the Award BIOS.
-
- Anyone got some ideas on this ?
-
- Please reply via email as we don't take comp.sys.ibm.pc.
