WOW! The Terminal Program is MUCH MUCH Faster. My 9600 looks
like 9600 baud now!

Hey? .... I just found a problem..??? I can't send a cntrl-c from
within TERMINAL ??? And while I'm at it, why does the system only
report 7000 KBytes free when my SWAPFILE is 8192? ALSO the
SCROLL LOCK KEY works differently in Terminal... Hummm!

Okay, I just fixed those problems, there is a check box under terminal
preferences which takes care of the above TERMINAL Problems...

Still wondering why my free memory only reports 7000 ...

WARNING!!!
Make sure the 3.0 you buy for $45 is actually Microsoft! Many of the $45
varieties are the same Windows but are sold under an OEM (Electron, etc).
It's the same software, but your warranty and upgrades are through the OEM.
Microsoft won't even know who you are! 
I bought 3.0 on 4/6, only to discover it was through Electron. Microsoft
won't even SELL me an upgrade, and Electron  won't have 3.1 upgrades for >
1 month, and I doubt it'll be free then. I got burned...don't emulate me!

Subject: 4DOS: Windows 3.1 casualty?
Date: 15 Apr 92 17:36:33 GMT
Organization: none

I can't seem to get 4DOS to run under Windows 3.1.  The window opens,
and responds properly to internal commands like 'dir' and 'cd' ...
but as soon as an external command is entered, the whole machine
locks-up - usually accompanied by an incessant beeping from the
speaker.  CTRL-ALT-DEL brings up the Windows screen saying that the
application is 'busy'; pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL again crashes the machine
requiring a reset to clear.

On the other hand, I've managed to get as many as 10 copies of 
COMMAND.COM (DRDOS 6.0) running without any problems...

Any suggestions?

It's built in to WIN.COM itself.  Check to make sure you don't have any
old copies of WIN.COM floating around in your path somewhere.

I'm running on a 19" (close to 20") and find that pixel size is similar to 640
x480 on a standard 14" monitor.  1280x1024 is the only way I know of to reduce
this since DPI is a function of monitor size / resolution.  Most good 19-20"
monitors can do 1280x1024.

May I ask what "patronizing bullshit" you are talking about?  John merely
made a statement which is based on technical fact -- that Windows has
less system security than OS/2.  If you feel his statement is wrong, then 
come up with some technical evidence to refute him.

Only from a TECHNOLOGICAL standpoint OS/2 has more strong points and less
problems.

Subject: Oak SVGA on GOLD STAR 386
Keywords: High Resolution Upgrade in Window
Date: 15 Apr 92 23:11:05 GMT
Organization: Purdue University Engineering Computer Network

I had a nagging problem but it was finally solved.  I am posting this for
anybody who is not aware of the problem.
I purchase my GS333 33MHz GoldStar386 (a Korean electronic Giant-- but oddly
most of the components are MIT-made in Tiwan) last December at SAM's wholesale
club at a price of $1799.  But SAM's lowered the price $200. next two months.
Well, anyway, I have been using VGA rsolution that factory set up cam e with
the computer in Window3.0.  But recently I tried to use 800x600 resolution
with the driver disk GOLDSTAR provided.  But I could not load from the disk.
VGA (SVGA) cad and driver are provided by Oak technologies.  After three
attempts with TRW technician (GoldStar Technical support), some one in TRW
finally said,'Oh, I forgot about a memo about the oak VGA card...' and gave me
the reason why it didn't work.  It apparently that setup program in the disk
that calls for the drivers in the same disks has WRONG names....  So what you
should do is
     on Disk #3 provided by GoldStar for VGA drivers,
     on subdirectory   :\win30
        there is file called    SETUP.INF
        change this to          OEMSETUP.INF
        then use setup from your Windows directoy on your hard drive (not
        from the setup in Windows) by saying
                                C:\windows\setup
     and follow the small(very tiny, actually) VGA manual....
This whole incident gave me a doubt on the ability of TRW technical support
that so many small vendors are using as free technical assistance.
Anyway, now I can have higher resolution (as much as 512kb VRAM can get) but
rather smaller actual screen size on my 14" SVGA screen...
I hope I could help anybody with GoldStar Computer....

  Since I know very little about OS/2, I have a question:

  What is the hard drive and memory requirements of it?

  A bonus of Win 3.1 is that it can be made as small as 5 megs, and
is no bigger than 10 megs (excluding more fonts)
  And it can be run with only 2 megs of memory (although I wouldn't
recommend it).

  How about OS/2? I heard that OS/2 takes up 30megs. Is this right?
If it is, there is no way I can run OS/2 -- my hard drive space is
at a premium now.....

  Please, no flames. I HEARD that OS/2 takes up 30megs. I don't
KNOW. Please correct me (politely) if I'm wrong.

The reason you can only start one clock is that the new clock saves its
position into an INI file.  Therefore, only one clock is allowed so as
not to cause conflicts.

The Windows 3.0 clock still works under 3.1.  If you want multiple clocks
rename the old clock to clock3.exe and run that.

The Tseng drivers are not part of Windows as they are not written by Microsoft.

>PC speaker?

I dialed into the Microsoft BBS (the number listed on the back of that
little pamphlet thing that came with Windows 3.1 -- with the tech support
numbers on it) looking for something else, and found something called
PCSPEAK.EXE (or something similar).  I downloaded it, installed it, and
it lets you control how the speaker is toggled with interrupts.  Ah well,
I said, I shut down Windows, and when I restarted it, I got the "Tada"
music from my speaker.  Doesn't sound bad, but I'm still ordering my
SoundBlaster Pro {8^).

FH.telemate in a Dos-box on my 486/33 with 16550. Both of them slow down the
  .transfer-rate with zmodem < 1000 CPS. ( >=1600 CPS plain Dos ). Unicom30c
  .for Windows give me 1500 CPS, but only if you do nothing else on the
  .maschine.

Try MLINK100.ZIP, it recognizes the 16550's and seems to run fine for me.
I don't have extensive time on it, but it's getting error-free transfers
with an HST 14.4 in the background.  Note that it'll probably work better
as an icon since it doesn't incur the overhead of the screen updates.
