Dear listers:
I am a novice user of open DOS.
I am very much impressed by the features of Open DOS, especially, the
multitasking feature.
However, I've experienced a serious problem.
Whenever I tried to add a task by pressing ctrl-esc and insert key, "4dos
XMS swapping initialized 40KB" pops up and pressing any key causes the same
message pop up continuously.
FYI, I am using 4DOS v5.95a and a screen reading software called
SrD, which accesses video memory directly in order to obtain textual data and
gives me oral description of what's going on the screen.
I will add my config.sys and autoexec.bat to the end of this mail.
One more, I changed "exec=false" to "exec=true" in taskmgr.ini file.
Much appreciation in advance.
