That would explain why he is using DOS7.1 with WFW 3.11, which used DOS 6.22.Quote from: Computer_Commando on March 08, 2010, 04:08:50 PM</p><blockquote>That would explain why he is using DOS7.1 with WFW 3.11, which used DOS 6.22.<br/></blockquote><br/>Windows for workgroups didn't "use" any version of DOS. it required DOS 3.3 or later, though.<br/><br/>additionally trying to run multiple versions of windows has far greater implications then what the "win" command does.<br/><br/>However, since it's possible that is the goal here:<br/><br/><strong>Running Windows 3.x and 2.x Simultaneously</strong> probably works with 3.0 and 3.1, just replace 2.x in the following text with the older version, and 3.x with the newer version.<br/><br/>1. Include the directory that contains Windows 3.x in the PATH statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Don't include the windows 2.x <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/install-2121155" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about INSTALL">INSTALL</a> directory. <em>(make it point to the latest version)</em><br/><br/>2. When you start <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/applications-19673" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about APPLICATIONS">APPLICATIONS</a> under windows 3.x or use a device driver (including a print command, which loads a printer driver), make sure that the current directory is not the directory that contains windows 2.x drivers. Windows searches the current directory before looking in directories on the path.<br/><br/>3. The version of Windows' HIMEM.SYS memory mananger in your CONFIG.SYS file must be the version that came with windows 3.x, not the one that came with Windows 2.x. The 3.x version can support both releases of windows, but not vice-versa.<br/><br/>4. If the copy of windows 2.x you are using is the 486-specific version (Windows/386 2.x) you must use the versions of Windows SmartDrive and RamDrive programs that came with windows 2.x. The Versions of SmartDrive and RamDrive that come with windows 3.x wil not support Windows/386 2.x.</body></html> | |
