The file <INDEX> in the directory PUB/PC/WIN3 contains a list of
all subordinate directories underneath which you could use to get

Windows NT is still very much targetted at the high-end of the desktop.  (With
Windows for Workgroups or Win 3.1 filling in the low end.)  As I mentioned in
a previous post, there will eventually be a version of Windows on DOS that
provides what you describe above, but this will not be till some time after
Windows NT.

Comments: Gated by NETNEWS@AUVM.AMERICAN.EDU
X-VMS-To: WIN3

Greetings!

Recently I've noticed a lot of erratic mouse pointer movement after I've
opened a dos session under Windows 3.1 (i.e., the 'MS DOS Prompt' icon).  I've
seen similar behavior when running a large number of windows apps
simultaneously, so I think this may be due to a memory crunch of some kind.
When running windows apps only, the behavior disappears when I close some of
the windows apps.  However, after starting a dos session, the behavior only
stops by stopping and restarting Windows, even though the dos session has been
closed.  System resources don't seem to be unusually low when this happens
either (right now the erratic pointer movement is occurring and my resources
are at 77%).

It seems like I've heard or read somewhere that in certain circumstances
Windows doesn't release memory properly from a closed application.  Perhaps
this happens when running a dos session under windows?  If this is the case,
is there any way to force windows to reclaim that memory?  Any help
appreciated.

BTW, I'm running a Zenith 386sx with 6 meg of memory and a Diamond Stealth
VRAM.  I'm also running v8.2 of the MS mouse driver and the latest Diamond
video driver for my board.  I'm also using the default pif for the dos
session.

Most games under Windows are minor strategy games, like the ones in the

than they might appear at first glance (e.g. Minesweeper).
 
Maxis is one of the very few companies I know of that has released

Has anyone delt with Win3.1 and Novell Netware for VMS.  I'm trying
specifically to print to our printserver from Windows.  Win3.0 would
list our VAX among the list of potential servers we could connect to
when setting up a network printer connection, but Win3.1 does not even
show the VAX in the dialog box.  Only our Novell file server is displayed
(We are using ethernet type 8137, of course, so I don't think _that's_
the problem).  If anyone has worked in this realm before I'd like to
know your advice.

There is no need for the permanent swap file to be on any particular
drive.  It needs contiguous space to create the file, though.

Subject:      Win 3.1 Speaker Driver

The Microsoft Windows 3.1 speaker driver offers two modes (selectable under
the control panel, under Drivers, when you click on Setup for the PC Speaker
Driver.  If you enable interrupts (lower left corner check box) the sound
quality will be very distorted, as interrupts disturb the reproduction.

If you don't check the "enable interrupts", however, the driver will suspend
all other interrupts during playback.  This makes a dramatic improvement in
sound quality, but can cause other problems.  I have heard of network errors,
etc. due to this, but have never experienced them myself.  I can envision
Async comm port errors though!  Most other devices buffer enough to survive
playback of a short sound.  Windows and the mouse will freeze briefly during
sound playback of course.

I too recommend a sound board as the best option, but the speaker driver works
well enough when that's not possible.

Subject:      Re: mail order

I just returned what was supposed to be a 486/33 to PC Brand.  In their adds
there is nothing that mentions that this system has a Cyrix 486 chip and a
80387 math coprocessor (since the Cyrix 486 does not have a math coprocessor
built in like the intel 486DX chips).  When I discovered this I immediatly
called and they said it was just as fast as the intel chip, but when I ran
Norton SI on it it came up with an overall score of 33 and a processor score
of 46.  I tested some 486/33's with the intel processor and their Norton SI
scores were more like 65 overall and 74 on the processor.  I would say that
is a significant difference.

I have seen other advertisements for 486/33 systems that have SAID they were
using the Cyrix chip, but there is nothing in the PC Brand ad that gives you
any clue.

Buyer Beware!

Yes, for the client side Microsoft will provide the next version of Windows for
DOS (3.2 or 4.0 or Windows for Workgroup ?). This version will be binary
compatible with all 32 bit intel hosted NT applications.

There are rumors about fully multitasking capabilities provided by this new

Yes, this halts all other APPS while yours in in the foreground, but if the
app is in a window, Windows itself will take up some resources (and possibly
some for Windows apps). In summary, it's best to run exclusive apps
full-screen.
 
A slightly better explanation of what I've just tried to say is on page 268 of
the Windows manual.

Ummm...

This may be a FAQ, but how do you access BITFTP?  I think its that you can
send "scripts" to ftp.cica.indiana.edu and get uuencode'd files back, though
I dont know what the email address is to send the script to.

Where do we send the email to so I can use BITFTP?

HELP!!

Andrew Lynch

Maybe what is really needed is a primer on how to access ftp.cica.indiana.edu
through the email system.

Any volunteers?

I have mapped my function keys for the emacs editor. I have also

You are having an IRQ conflict.  You can very easily change the interrupt

Subject:      HELP ! SSTOR- error message !

HI Netters !

I know that it is maybe the wrong list for that question, but that's the only
one i'm subscribe to.

My problem is the error message: error in directory structure - write protected
assignment !!

Any hints without using a complete backup ??

Thanx
      Bernd

Does anyone know the actual directory location of the ftp location on cica?
It is needed to create an NFS mount (which I would like to do).
thanx

From:         Christos <CPATTICHIS@MISVAX.MIS.ARIZONA.EDU>

    Does anybody know how I can start two programs by just doubleclicking on
  one icon. For example I want to start TrashCan whenever I start File
  Manager and then close it when I exit File manager. Is there a way to do
  that with the functions provided by windows or is there any public domain
  program that will do that for me?

  Thanks,
  Christos.
