*What* "BIOS serial #"? 

There's no such thing on a"standard" ISA bus machine. I think microchannel
machines have such a thing and have no idea if EISa machines do.

In short, it ain't standard, so only the board maker or BIOS vendor
can tell you. And it likely won't work on anything else.

Hi!

There are lots of different floating point coprocessors for the IBM PC
(and compatibles). Does there exist some kind of survey of which are
the best/fastest/most compatible etc? Yesterday I heard that some FP chip
(the name of which I don't know) produced "slightly" incorrect results 
on a FFT. Not nice. Some manufacturers send along a test program. Do all
do this? Are these test programs reliable?

I'll make a summary, in case there is interest.

 When I used Procomm and WordStar 5.5 I could call WordStar with Alt A 
from Procomm.  Having upgraded to Procomm Plus and WordStar 7.0 I get a 
Not Enough Memory message when trying to call WordStar with Alt A.  I've 
got 3 Meg RAM in this 386SX, use Dos 5.0.  My config.sys file is thus:
 
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
DOS=HIGH,UMB
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 1024
DEVICE=C:\DOS\SMARTDRV.SYS 1024 /A
DEVICEHIGH=C:\DOS\ANSI.SYS
DEVICEHIGH=C:\DOS\BURNDEV.SYS 16000 F3
BUFFERS=30
FILES=30
 
It seems like I should be able to get enough conventional memory 
to run WordStar from within Procomm Plus.  Is there anything else 
I can do here?  Would QEM386 do the trick?  I suppose I could 
install Windows, but that seem excessive to get done what I'm 
looking to do.

With the vast majority of PC's, you can steal an extra 64K of upper 
memory by moving the EMS page frame to E000. 

This will not work if you use emm386 just to provide umb's (ie with 
the 'noems' option); it will not work on IBM PS/2's, which have an 
extended BIOS located in the E000 segment; it may not work with some 
peripherals that use this segment.

the emm386 invocation in your config.sys file would look something 
like this :

DEVICE=C:\BIN\emm386.exe 1024 frame=E000

Most of the problems in this post have been worked 'round, if not solved. 
SETUP is INSTALL renamed.  The disk labels were wrong.  And HIDOS.SYS
doesn't seem to like the permanent upper RAM on AMI BIOS 286s (or so I
guess), and so biffs DOS into low memory on failure. 

Thanks to everyone who responded.

Subject: Windows 3.0, QEMM Stealth, and 4DOS

Has anyone else had problems with Windows 3.0 running in enhanced mode
on a 386 while using Stealth and 4dos 4.0?  Windows loads up fine, but
when I try to run a 4dos session, the startup banner starts to appear
and then quits, and Windows gives an "Application violated system
integrity, killing." message.  This seems to happen no matter what I set
the swapping to (I thought it might be the EMS swapping).  I also just
got the upgrade to QEMM 6.02, and the same thing happens.  I can load
command.com fine, and 4dos works if I turn off stealth on the ROM at
F000.  Even turning on Stealth but adding an "X=F000-FFFF" doesn't cure
the problem.

Any ideas?  Thanks in advance.

Date: 14 Apr 92 05:31:24 GMT
Organization: Rutgers Univ., New Brunswick, N.J.

I have the FAXIT package, but I'm not satisfied.  Maybe it's my modem or
my setup, but I get lousy performance.  The problem is that when I am
trying to use the modem, the FAX mode gets turned on somehow, and locks the
session. The only solution is to reboot.

This problem crops up because the software is TSR based , in order
to detect incoming faxes and deal with them automatically.  Since
I could not get the program to leave me alone when I was trying to
use the modem, I had to remove the background program.

Now, when I want to send a FAX, I have to load the background program,
load the forground program , send the FAX , unload the foreground program
, and unload the background program.  I would naturally prefer to load
only one program.

For this reason, I am looking for a simple and effective FAX program.
I don't want anything fancy, just something to do the job.  Any suggestions?

I also have the ALIEN FAXIT package for Windows 3.0.  The problem is similar.
It requires (at least for my modem) that a background program be loaded 
BEFORE Windows is loaded.  This interferes with DOS communications
programs running under windows, and silently steals CPU cycles.
I eventually abandoned Windows entirely, but I thought some of
you Windows users might find the info useful.

If anyone has had more success than I , and has solved some of the problems
I encountered , please let me know

Summary: How to call Turbo C/C_++ from dBase III+
Date: 13 Apr 92 10:19:33 GMT
Organization: University of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, NE1 7RU

I am at the moment writing a menu system under dBase III+ for a large database
system that I am using.

I am having a few problems in my pull down menu system of reading the left
cursor key.  Even though I have an idea what the problem is, and my book tells
me how to get round it, it won't work.

So, this gave me the idea to write it under Turbo C or Turbo C++, and compile
the code to a .bin file, which dBase would then be able to read.

Firstly, I tried converting the .exe file produced from the c code, but exe2bin
refused to touch this.  So I then told the Turbo compiler to produce an
assembly language listing for the C code.  (when I say C code, it was written
in Turbo C++).  I then ran TASM on this, and then linked it using TLINK.  TLINK
gave a couple of error messages about the format of using 'cout' in the
assembler code, but it produced an executable.

So I ran exe2bin on this new executable, and it produced the required .bin file
for me.

Great, I thought.  I then loaded this into dBase without any complaint from the
system, and then I ran it, at which point it hung ...

Any ideas?

Someone gave me a monitor that I would like to hook up to a
XT clone.  It says "IBM Personal System/2 Monochrome Display".
On the back, it says that it is model #8503001. 

The connector isn't like the normal 9 pin connector.  It has
three rows of pins.  How can I adapt it for use with an XT?

Thank you in advance.

I have a Micro Express 386SX in the slimline case.  I've been pretty happy
with it so far.  Their technical support is good provided you have the
patience to keep dialing the 800 number repeatedly until you get
through.  Mine has the Intel 386SX-16 chip since the 20 Mh and the 25 Mh
chips weren't available at the time I bought it. (Late 1990)
