- I have had NO success trying to use TD/386. Problem was that port 21h
- was getting changed somewhere and I couldn't figure out where, when it
- occurred to me, "hey, this is a prefect job for TD386"... So, I put
- it's driver in CONFIG.SYS, fire it up, set break on out to port 21, run.
- boom. GP fault. So, I strip down CONFIG and AUTOEXEC, try it again,
- same thing. So, my (minimal) config is:
-
- STACKER 2.0
- TDH386.SYS
-
- and nothing else... TD386 seems like it could be a very useful tool
- for problems like this, but it doesn't do me much good the way it
- is...
-
- This hasn't been the first time that TD386 has failed; it also failed
- me in a similar situation, but last time I wrote it off because I
- meant for the breakpoint (another port access) to happen within the
- ROM BIOS, so I figured that that might cause some problems. This
- time, I have no idea whatsoever why it wouldn't work. I got all the
- patches to BC++ 3.1 I could find, none of them seem to pertain to TD,
- so...
-
- ideas, anyone?
