Maximum Overkill won't even run with a memory manager like QEMM.  It
wants to go into 32-bit mode and have the whole machine to itself.
It's _highly_ unlikely that it could be made to run under OS/2.

Yup Dave, I've let my machine run night and day for about a full year now...
it's a 486 clone with both OS/2 and Win 3.1... I have not had any troubles

That drives me nuts!  I know that a CTRL-SHIFT-F1 stops it... but I should not

But in answer to your question... yes (I leave it running) and no (I've had no

I would guess that this is becuase AOL is designed for HOME use ...
it is not AT ALL business-oriented.  I think the majority 
of home PC systems run DOS, not OS/2 (at least partly due to the

Summary: Gammatech Utilities saved my behind
Organization: Wilfrid Laurier University
Date: Tue, 22 Dec 1992 02:23:23 GMT

For reasons I won't go into here, I badly needed to rescue some
files on my hard disk (formatted under HPFS). The shareware
utility I tried didn't even find the files, let alone recover
them. Gammatech's Undelete found and undeleted my files quite
handily. For that, if nothing else, I am thankful to them for
stopping me from closely considering razor blades or gazing
wistfully at the ground below my 12th story apartment.

The utilities installed nicely, with a minimum of fuss. The
optimization is configurable, and the on-line documentation
explains clearly why its defaults are set the way they are, and
under what circumstances are appropriate for you to change them.
(I haven't noticed any performance changes, but then my disk was
pretty well optimized anyways).

It's file finding utility works quickly and easily.

So far, it's been difficult for me to find any fault with it. It
doesn't have the polish or the Swiss-army knife flexibilty of
the Norton Utilities for DOS, for example. The documentation that
comes with the package is skimpy in the extreme. When I saw the
single stiff-paper reference guide that came with the single
floppy disk, my first reaction was "I paid umpteen grupniks for
this!". However, the on-line documentation is seemingly complete,
and they give you enough information and warnings to get you out
of a sticky situation such as I was in. However, I imagine that
the price will come down as competitors come on the market. Whenever
that is.

If I come across any other notable benefits or faults, I'll post
them. At the moment, I can only grovelling give a thousand
thanks for Gammatech's Undelete.

Frank,

There is an undocumented M$-DOS command, "FDISK /MBR", which is 'Make

Try setting it to 19200.  For downloading mostly compressed files (ZIP,
ARJ, .Z, etc), this should work fine.  If you're downloading text or
other compressable items, then try the next highest (38400).

Other than that, check to see if you have a 16550 UART on your comm port.

If you have an internal modem, chances are that you do.  If you're not
sure, try running the following (assuming you are using COM1):

MODE COM1,19200,N,8,1,BUFFER=AUTO

If you get the message "Asynchronous Communications mode has been set."
then all is OK.  Put that statement into your C:\startup.cmd and OS/2 will
automatically set this for you every time you boot.  If you get an error
message, then you don't have a 16550 (or something else is wrong) so you
can ignore all I just said about the BUFFER=AUTO stuff.  I recommend you
do get the 16550AFN chip.  It will increase your reliability and allow
you to use the higher baud rates under OS/2.

Personal Software Products  will be IBM Canada's guest  speaker at the
PACIFIC RIM SHOW.

John's  Presentation  will  revolve   around  IBM's  operating  system
products and technology directions. The discussion will focus on IBM's
intention  to produce  and market  the Workplace  family of  operating
systems. This  family will initially  encompass DOS, OS/2  and AIX and
will make  systems easier to connect  and manage, as well  as simplify
application   development.  New   technologies  include   a  new   IBM
Microkernel-based  offering;   a  comprehensive  set   of  distributed
computing  and management  technologies; breakthrough  object-oriented
technology;  a common  desktop user  interface and  much more. The IBM
Workplace  family  operating  systems  of  the  future  will provide a
framework that can innovate and evolve while protecting the investment
in hardware, applications and training. In addition, the importance of
IBM's  relationships with  Apple,  Taligent,  Novell, Lotus  and other
leading companies will be discussed.

TO REGISTER,  please call IBM Direct  at 1-800-465-1234 and ask  to be

Once there was...  ;-)

a program called PC/370 R4.2 (?) which is an assembler for IBM/370
assembler code and includes runtime support.
It should also run in a DOS box.

The problem is that (if I remember it correctly) it was "turned" into
a commercial product (before that it was kind of shareware or freeware).

Maybe you can still find it on anonymous FTP servers.

Sytos Plus uses a proprietary tape format.  It can NOT read or write
the standard QIC 40/80 tape formats.  Therefore, the only way to 
take something off of a tape made with another backup package is 
to use the original package.

What's your display size?  If you use VGA or 800x600, which use 32x32
icons, the large ones may actually look WORSE than before, since
detail will be deleted when they're scaled down.

What you describe sounds like you've got a 1024x768 display, in which
case icons would be 40x40.  The 32x32 icons would be scaled up,
creating thick lines in places, while the 64x64 icons would be scaled
down, deleting detail.  If you create a 40x40 icon (8514 form factor
from the icon editor), you should see it displayed exactly they way
you made it.

I've a minor problem with two different games which, curiously,
exhibit the same symptoms under OS/2 - Falcon III and Joe Montana
Football.

I've got a SoundBlaster installed. It works fine in general with
these games, except that, periodically, there is a growling noise
that comes from the games. In Falcon III, I'm guessing that this is
probably radio messages, and in Joe Montana Football, maybe speech
really slowed down? All other sounds work ok.

Can anyone tell me what's going on here, and perhaps what DOS
setting will fix this? (I'm running the games in DOS full screen
mode. I did try setting HW_TIMER to ON in Joe Montana Football
but that really made OS/2 very unhappy - WPS slowed down and it
was tough to kill the program).

Actually, BackMaster will be using QIC-500 format.  The reason
is that QIC-500 has a clean support for OS/2 Extended Attributes
which is not supported well in the QIC-80 specification, and is
not supported at all in most DOS QIC-80 implementations.

QIC-500 is upwardly compatible from QIC-40 and QIC-80 so you can
at least read DOS backups.

Tom,

The way I installed it [not necessarily THE way...] was to:

open a full screen OS/2 Window
go to the target drive [b: in my case]
run the install program from the floppy using the command line

The install was incident free.  The financial calculator doesn't
work however, but I think that's mentioned in one of the OS/2 readme
files.  Also the reminders program didn't work when I tried to run
it.  Locked the system if I recall correctly.  Haven't bothered to
try and get it up and running since...my creditors seem to enjoy
reminding me!

The only bug I've found so far is the fact the program came up with
a negative number the first time I entered my data!!!  :-)

Last night i was over in the pub/upload directory and saw the new
C-Kermit 5A(188) with the fix for the sio comm drivers. I went to 
d/l and it was gone. The file size was changed to 0 within seconds.
What happened? Is it available from watsun and where? Thanks,
Alan Benezra
