Subject:      Test memory

Dear Windows users:

    I have just upgraded to 20 meg of memory using 4megX9 80 ns SIMMs and
1megX9 70ns SIMMs.  So far I haven't had any problems, but I was wondering
what experences anyone has had with mixed memory?
   I am a large windows user (Norton Desktop for Windows actualy) so if I
have a problem it will happen in windows.
    I was also wondering what the best utility to test memory?  (ShareWare
or other wise).

You will need win.zip, the handiest windows file compressor/decompressor I
have seen. Its available on compuserv in winadv forum. Latest release is
3.2. There is a beta 4.x available in the same place, but I havent tried it.
Since virtually all shareware is compressed in zip or lzh format, this program
is a must. For lzh format, you will need lha.exe, probably in the same place
on compuserv.

I personnally like Norton Desktop for Windows, and wouldn't run win without
it. However, for some people it has been incredibly difficult to install and
use. A few of the available tools, (scheduler and screen blanker, to name 2)
are not 100% stable for all configurations. I don't use them. You will want
a graphics viewer such as wingif or paint shop pro and a font utility.
Someone else should come in on font utilities as I am not excited about the
ones I have. You should also get the Windows Resource Kit from microsoft.

There is lots of other stuff available. I think these are the essentials.

Subject: Re: Music Notation Software

Not an answer, but a continuation.

I have the shareware version of WinJammer (from CICA) and I cannot make it
play anything either. I have a ProAudio Spectrum 16 (yes, folks, I bought
it), and when I press play, it says "Trouble cleaning up" or something very
similar. Does ANYONE have any clue as to what that means, and how it should
be fixed?

BTW I have ordered a copy of Personal Composer for Windows, which looks as
if it is going to be a VERY nice music notation program. It's a $99 upgrade
from PC for DOS, and, I believe (please don't quote) about $200 straight
out. It's put out by Jim Miller in Seattle, Washington (again, just a
guess.. I don't have any of the information with me).

Happy new year to all..

The MSD program (Microsoft Diagnostics) that comes with Windows 3.1
will tell you what kind of UART you have.

BTW, my machine is a 20 MHz 386sx with an 8250 UART (8520? Can't
remember the damn number exactly offhand), and I can do xfers at
speeds up to 57,600 with very few errors, 38,400 is virtually
error-free.

Check your Connection in setup, you may want to lower your default
baud rate.  Mine's set at 38,400 and no problems to speak of.
Hardware flow control is a must, too, at high speed.  And use the
16K buffer for sure.  I also increased buffering in Windows itself
with the statement: ComXBuffer=<buffsize> (bytes) in the
[386Enhanced] section of WIN.INI, where the "X" is the number of
your COM port.

It may help also to increase your Windows in Foreground priority in
the 386 Enhanced control panel, to give PW more cpu time.  And set
your COM port to 19,200 with Hardware Flow Control in the Ports
Control Panel.

Last but not least, it helps to have sufficient memory!  I and a
friend of mine have identical machines, and we both recently
bought identical modems (Intel SatisFAXtion/400 external
14,400bps). He has only 2 megs on his machine, whereas I have 8.
He probably shouldn't be running Windows at all with so little
memory, but that's another story...

Anyway, on his machine, the modem is useless for xfers above
9600.  Without Smartdrive his machine is just too damn slow to keep
up.

He ordered two 4 meg SIMM's a few days after he got the modem.  :-)

Harry,

=>I've been using ProComm Plus for Windows for a couple of months
=>and I'm very disappointed in the package.

I guess I'm one of those who is extremely happy with the product.
I'm only running on a 286 with 5 megs though and a vanilla 2400
baud internal modem. I've had no problems whatsoever with
uploading/downloading in any protocol.

I 'cut my computing teeth' on Datastorm Products starting with the
Procom shareware product. I've found Datastorm to be extremely
helpful though in the area of customer support. Try writing to the
following adresses with your problem:

Chuck Spohr/DATASTORM <75140.710@compuserve.com>
Larry McKinley/DATASTORM <73707.1100@compuserve.com>

I think you might just find these guys pretty helpful with
problems you seem to be having.

Have you tried Null Modem connection?  Should work, I would think.

Subject:      Stacker slows Windows startup?

I installed Stacker 3.0 and everything was wonderful -- until I started
Windows 3.1. The startup sequence now takes about 1.5-2 minutes (used
to take about 20 seconds), with lots and lots of disk accessing. I per-
ceive no other performance problems, which leads me to believe it is a
problem allocating the temporary swap file. I tried setting it to NONE
for swap file, but I didn't notice much difference. I am loathe to try
a permanent swap file since I'd have to uninstall Stacker and reinstall
and it takes about 1.5 hours to compress my 140-meg disk.

This is the first computer I've seen act this way, and I've installed
Stacker on a half-dozen machines at work. Is my guess about the temp
swap file reasonable? If so, how can I change it? As a last resort,
I'm willing to try setting up a permanent swap file, but I'd have to
be very certain it was going to fix the problem since it's so much
work.

If it's not the swap file, what might it be? Note that my disk
controller will not allow 32-bit access, if that matters.

Thanks.

Hmmm.  Thought that number may have been wrong.  :-)

But as it turns out, just a few hours after I sent that letter off,
I was reading PC Mag, and lo!  There was a little blurb about
PC+/Win 2.0!  The new version has 15 different xfer protocols, 33
terminal emulations, and support for quite a few networks.

List price, 5-user pack, $215.  Additional workstations, $43.

Excuse me, also, but aren't these two switches mutually exclusive?

I missed the earlier part of the discussion, so not sure what we're
trying to accomplish here, but with the NOEMS switch, Windows will
still emulate EMS for applications that need it.
