I have troubles with my lunchbox case's proprietary ISA video card. The
card drives the LCD and so is the only one I can use if I want to use the
onboard display. Win95,98,NT, and Linux (Xwindows) will not run on the
machine at all. The only thing that will even install is OS/2 Warp4. This
is fine for me because Warp is what I wanted in the first place. I wanted
another OS just for kicks. I use the machine as an MP3 player for my car.

We created playlists and used the machine at our wedding last September.
Thank God for friends because my 2kw UPS is a HEAVY bitch.....

Maybe you are having similar trouble with your emulator. Perhaps trying
the emulator in a DOSBox in Windows might help work around it.

It also might have something to do with Smartdrive being enabled or (base)
memory issues. In Config.sys:

Device=C:\dos\himem.sys /testmem:off
Device=c:\dos\emm386.exe noems
Files=60
Buffers=40
Dos=high,UMB


Remove any superfluous lines in config and Autoexec and see what happens.

Sorry if you know all this allready. Just trying to help.

Why in hell a 32bit microprocessor needs to bitbang ram is just beyond me.
Microsoft couldn't write themselves out of a paper bag.

Regards,

Jeff
