Subject: Windows 3.11 and DR DOS 7.02.
Precedence: bulk


Hi listers,
I hope somebody has some suggestions. I installed DR DOS 7.02 about a month
ago, and at that time I tested all my major applications, including Win3.11
to make sure they would run. They all did. During the past month I have been
fine tuning my DOS, experimenting with the task manager, disk caching,
stuffing upper memory blocks, and the like, but not rechecking
all my applications after every change.
I do not often run Windows, but I have one or two things that require it.
Today for the first time in a long while I tried running one of them, and
found that Windows no longer runs under DR DOS. It quits while loading with
the message:
Error: Unsupported MSDOS version.
Then my memory manager reports an error somewhere and advises me to reboot
immediately.
I tried adding "win.com 6.22" to my setver.exe to no avail.
I tried removing "share" and "taskmger" from my autoexec.bat also to no
avail. I tried taking the "xmsumb" option off the emm386 command line (the
latest change I recall having made) to no avail. If it will be helpful, I
include my configuration files below. Any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated...
