- I have an interesting windows problem that neither Microsoft,
- my Novell reseller, or the Display card suppliers can solve.
- Any ideas, please reply I'm getting desperate. Here is the
- scene.
-
- Windows 3.1 running in 386 enhanced mode on a Novell
- 3.11 network. IPX = version 3.10, NETX = 3.26. I am
- trying to install the high resolution windows
- graphics drivers for a trident tvga 8900c 1MB full
- height video card. The machine is an AST 486/33
- bravo with 4 MB and a 10 base T network adaptor card
- NE2000 type port - 340h int = 5. Basically when I
- use the card with the standard mode VGA driver that
- comes with windows no probs, however if I try to
- use the high resolution drivers I get the following.
- -
- A device file specified in system.ini is corrupted
- it you may need to run windows in 386 enhanced mode.
- You may need to run the setup program again.
- f:\user\bill\vddtvga.386
- Press any key to continue ...
-
- Invalid VxD dynamic link call to device number 000a, service
- 0007. Your windows config is invalid. Run windows setup
- program again to correct the problem.
- -
- When I install the drivers on the local copy of windows, ie
- windows on c: it works fine. I have tried a number of different
- resolutions and same problems ! I have extracted the trident
- video drivers and set up windows correctly according to
- microsoft.
-
- All that I can determine is that there is some clash between
- windows on the network and this particluar video driver.
- If you have any suggestions please let me know because I am
- all out.
-
-
- Thanks
- Robert
