- Apparently Lotus 1-2-3 tried to use math coprocessor which the 486SX machine
- does not have. Fortunately, OS/2 have built-in math-coprocessor emulation,
- and for any DOS programs that try to use a math coprocessor, you should
- include the next line in your CONFIG.SYS:
-
- device=c:\os2\mdos\VNPX.SYS
-
- Good luck!
