- Has anybody been able to get Borland 3.1 to work with an ATI/Ultra using
- the ultra.dll supplied with the BC3.1 release.
-
- Symptoms:
- Invoking debugger from IDE or by clicking on TDW icon crashes windows
- big-time. Ctrl-Alt-Del trick does not work, and leads to the DOS prompt
- or sometimes a continuous tone emanating from speaker. On a few (rare)
- occasions I have seen the debugger screen come up, only to have the
- monitor go black about a half second later ... never to be seen again.
- Crash also occurs in 800x600 mode.
-
-
- Vital Data:
- ATI/Ultra 1024x768 Non-interlaced (16bit bus interface).
- Windows 3.1 express install over existing 3.0 running Enhanced mode.
- 10 meg permanent swap file.
- 486/33 PC clone with AMI BIOS (256K cache).

- CONFIG.SYS
- -------------------------
- device=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
- FILES=40
- BUFFERS=40
- dos=high,umb
- device=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE noems x=c000-cfff
-
- devicehigh=c:\dos\ansi.sys
- devicehigh=c:\dos\setver.exe
- shell=c:\command.com /p/e:1024
- STACKS=9,256
- -------------------------
-
-
- I've followed the directions in the readme that came with BC3.1 and am at
- a loss. I've fooled around with the above config.sys alot, to no avail, and
- am getting tired of rebooting.
-
- Any help would be greatly appreciated.

- Thanks
