- Has anyone had problems running Borland C++ 3.1 Turbo Debugger
- for Windows using certain video drivers? I spent a couple
- of hours fighting with TDW last night before I realized it
- was the video driver. If I use any of the drivers that
- came with my Ultra Graphics Board or the 8514 driver that
- came with Windows 3.1, TDW will not only bomb out (ie. lock
- up the system) but when I try to cancel the task with Cntl-Alt-Del,
- it gives me a GPF and brings me back to the DOS prompt.
-
- When I run TDW using the 800x600 16 color VGA driver (comes with
- Windows 3.1) it runs fine.
-
- Other details:
- 486 50 Mhz (DX2) processor
- ATI Ultra Graphics Board w/1 Mg
- Crystal Scan 15" monitor (1248 x 1240)
- Windows 3.1/DOS 5.0
- Borland C++ w/Application Frameworks 3.1
-
- Thanks in advance for the help.
