- Same problem I'm having, except I never get a mouse cursor. The july
- release worked fine.
-
- I have an '89 Gateway 386/20 w/8MB ram and 150MB disk. I thought it was disk
- space on the c: partition, but no such luck. With 50MB to start out, it still
- has about 1 meg free when it locks (with the 10MB temp. swap file).
-
- Might it be BIOS shadowing? Haven't tried that off. Can't find my config
- disks..
-
- thanks.
