- I've been running the Service & Performance Pack (32-Bit GRE & bug fixes)
- since it was released and have noticed a couple potential problems...
-
- Occasionally, my system will hang on exit from either a DOS or OS/2 session.
- Simply exiting from a DOS CLI has brought the whole system down w/o a
- warning or Trap msg. being displayed...Interestingly enough, I can't reproduce
- this error w/ any type of regularity...Seems to happen about once or twice
- a week. I've seen this happen on my 486-33 w/ 16Megs RAM & TSENG 256-color
- drivers, as well as a 386-40 w/ 8Megs RAM & Trident 16-color drivers.
-
- Also, the system doesn't appear to be deallocating & compacting memory as
- rapidly or efficiently as before....At bootup, I generally have around 6Meg
- free, but after being up for around 4hrs and doing various "stuff" (i.e.
- opening lots of folders, running HyperAccess/5 v3.0 a couple times, viewing
- some gifs, etc, etc..) I only have around 2.5Meg free, w/ all windows &
- folders closed! I'm using System Resources v1.40 to obtain this info...
-
- Any ideas as to what's causing the above would be greatly appreciated.
