	I have a Zenith 386/DX with 2mg RAM.  I often I get the error message:
"Memory Parity Failure."  I checked in the users manual and it told me that the
problem could be with the memory, parity circuitry, or the parity generator. 
But, it didn't tell me how to fix the problem.  Could someone please tell me
how to fix the problem?  When it happens I can usually press G and the problem
temperarily goes away.  But, when I'm in certain programs like Windows the
computer doesn't let me type, and just freezes up.  Please E-mail me if you
have any suggestions.  Any help is appreciated.

Howdy -

	Be careful!  I just bought a system with AMI BIOS, and when I first
booted it up it appeared as if it scanned all memory.  When inspecting the
BIOS setup, the extended memory check was DISABLED.  It still flipped through
all 4M of memory, even though it wasn't performing a check!  Check your
BIOS setup to see if its really verifying the memory.

The 286's have been with us for over 3 yrs, and the others for over a

And while everyone applauds our government's domestic efforts at "trust-busting" and "free trade", our government continues to permit free access to our market

Do you really think this is free trade?  Do you really think that MITI

it does not.  MITI protects cartels in targeted industries as a matter of

The reason that Japan is so obviously successful in this war and the United     States is not is that the government of Japan has adopted tactics appropriate   to the world market of the 90's, while the United States is still saddled with  policy dating back to the dawn of the Industrial Revolution.

Issues:

hard drive temperature (change in physical disk size due to variations in
temperature)

energy conservation

Trade off:  While it's best to let your hard drive run at the same temperature
(to maintain highest degree of data-integrity), we shouldn't run the computers
all the time as they use electricity.

Author's conclusion:  Leave your computer on through the week, and turn it off
over the weekends.

I have Pc-Tools V8.0 and I can't get the option UNDELETE to work.

It doesn't even light up in my menu list. Any one know why or

has any one gotten it to work on their hard drive with files

that were just deleted????

 

I also can't get the UNZIP option in the compress menu to work.

I tried to unzip a copy of SCAN99.zip in my 2mb ram drive with

the unzip option of Pc-tools and got a message that first

the files might over right existing files on my drive.

Then it said that it couldn't unzip the file because the directories

might already exist on my drive. My ram drive was empty other than

just the one file (SCAN99.ZIP) so there couldn't be a problem

with either existing directories or files.

 

Using pkunzip I unziped the file with no problem at all.

What gives with the NEW AND IMPROVED PCTOOLS V8.0 FOR DOS????

 

Any help would be vary nice on this and would be greatly APPRECIATED!

Ever heard of IRQ's ? Usually you run out of IRQ's before you run out of
slots. That's what the previous posting mentioned and you seem to have missed.
A floppy streamer is also no serious option.(and needs another IRQ)

Yeah. This is one of those hacks Amiga users need to make their
machines tolerable. You don't need it on a PC. Whether or not you 
get flicker on a PC has to do with your monitor and the video card,
and is more of an issue at Super VGA resolutions. Two things can 
cause flicker:

A low vertical scan rate, < 70 Hz. Fix: change mode on monitor and 
card, or get a better monitor/card.

Interlace: Usually at 1024x768. Up to a year ago most 14" monitors 
operated with interlace at this resolution. These days most don't.
Fix: drop down to 800x600 or get a new monitor. (btw.. 1024x768 in-
terlaced isn't always intolerable. Its actually quite nice on moni-
tors designed for it, eg. IBM's 8515 with long persistence phosphors).

I had a problem like this once, and we fixed it this way:
(don't laugh)

We took a bar magnet and attached it to the middle of a big rubber band.
That is, I held the rubber band stretched between 2 fingers, then inserted
the magnet perpendicular to the rubber band.
Then I taped the magnet to the rubber band.

I then wound the rubber up by rotating the magnet, held it about
6 inches from the front of the tube, and let go.
As it unwound, it caused a rapidly-fluctuating magnetic field
that demagnetized the screen.
That got rid of most of the color distortion.
Turning the monitor on and off caused the automatic degauss circuit to
kick in, and eventually the monitor was OK.

You could also try a degaussing coil...

I recently aquired a Wangtek qic streamer (5125EN) together with
a controller card from Wangtek (PC36, doing QIC-02, I think).
As I don't like SYTOS, I want to write a device driver for
MSDOS, or, alternatively, a set of library routines; in the end, I
want to use tar or cpio, and be able to read and write tapes as I
do under UNIX (well, kind of).
I got the driver from BSDI's 386BSD, and learned a lot about the io-interface,
but after reading the first block, everything stops and waits for something
to happen (I have an interrupt service routine and a time out routine).
Somehow, I didn't put the protocol right.
What I would like to have, is a description of the commands and statuses
(I have some) and a short description of the protocol (when do I start the DMA,
when does the controller issue an interrupt, what do I do then ...).

Please reply by email, because I'll work at our customer's site for some
time. I will happily provide you with the driver / lib, if I get it to work.

Well, the vendor may have down-graded their chips (the chip may actually
work at 33MHz, but they labeled it at 25MHz because they needed more of
that bin).

More likely is that (as another poster mentioned) there is a guardband
built into the test.  Note that the IC must work at or above 25MHz, at
(possibly) 110C, 4.5V, etc.  If the board vendor knows that the case temp
won't go above a certain amount (good airflow, heatsink, etc.), and knows
that his supplies will be, say, 5.0V +/- 1% (not likely), then he could
push the chip higher in frequency with no ill effects.

Then again, the manufacturer probably put some 25MHz parts in his 33MHz board,
found that they worked, and shipped it.  :-)

Not good.

	Exactly.  Picture drawing a graph for each chip with voltage on the
x axis and frequency on the y axis.  There is a guaranteed working domain
on this graph for this chip.  The testers (which are pretty complicated 
beasts by the way, each one  costing over a million bucks), change both
the voltage and frequency in steps while running test vectors through the
chips, and thus cover the entire domain where the chip is guaranteed.  
The data from this tests will tell which "bin" the chip will go into.  The
typical convention is that Bin 1 is All tests pass at high speed, Bin
2 is All tests pass at some lower speed, and so on.  Then come bins that 
indicate some specific failure mode, random bit fails, or stuck-at faults,
or shorts, or opens, and so on.
