- Summary: Windows on a '286 (HELP!)
- X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.1 PL8]
-
- If I install Windows 3.1 on an AT 286 I have no problems.
- After some further uses of Windows, it suddenly denies its work.
-
- If I type in:
- win
- I see the title page for some seconds and after that I get the following
- error message:
-
- Error in standard mode: Adress not in MSDOS memory manager
- ... IP: B3FB ....
-
- /\
- ||
- Here I get the current contents of all processor registers especially the
- Instruction pointer.
-
- Can anybody give me a hint, why it works sometime and then breaks down ?
- I've already tried to save the files: autoexec.bat
- config.sys
- /windows/*.ini
- to a disk. After the breakdown I restored them to the harddisk with no success.
- By the way after installing Windows I also installed Excel 3.0 successful.
- Perhaps this might cause any problems !?
-
- I would be very happy to hear any hints I can follow...
- Thanks
