Strange enough my card (ET4000-based) scored lower on version 2.5 -- only
2.7M -- while in 3.1 it jumped to 3.6M...

Anybody else had this jump?

Subject:      Windows interface for IBM Mainframe via IBM PC LAN

From:   George G Galdiano

Jerome,

I am not familiar with the LAN you mentioned. We are doing exactly what you
described with NetWare, only we can connect to the network and the mainframe.

The user logs into our network before we start windows. In fact, windows is on
the file server, so they cannot get into windows without logging into the
network. We load all the netware drivers high to leave room for windows.

With our setup, like your I believe, you can only get to the mainframe from
the network. We are using WSLAN and TN3270 software. WSLAN did not want to
load under windows, so at first, we had to load WSLAN (a TSR) then load
windows. We then created an icon which executed the necessary "JUMP" command
to to jump to the mainframe session. This solution of course meant you could
run no other application from windows. WSLAN took 320, windows took 320, the
netware drivers took all available UMBs. We heard a rumor a windows version of
WSLAN was coming out, and was waiting for that.

However, after creating a PIF file for a batch file which executed WSLAN, we
were finally able to run WSLAN under windows totally - without having to start
it before starting windows.

We never had trouble starting TN3270 software under windows.

I know this doesn't solve your problem, but perhaps you can get some ideas to
try out from this note. I have seen IRMA (SP?) a mainframe emulation program,
advertised for as little as $99.00 if you have a competitor's product. It
works under windows. Good luck.

No. But it is possible to use Packet_Driver Apps over NDIS (WFWG drivers).
    You need a special Packet Driver over NDIS module called DIS_PKT.GUP.
    I think the latest version is in a file called DIS_PKT9.??? on various

      Is ther any NT beta (october) user that has encountered the error
  "cannot find NTLDR".  I have be having the problem for the last few days.
  What are the most important files in the root of the C drive that I could
  have over wrote when I restored my old HD.

      Oh ya.  I am running NT on a shared DOS partition.  The machine has
  more than enough memory and disk space.

      I FTP'd a boot workaround disk and now I can get into NT and DOS from
  floppies, but when I try to run most of the WIN16 programs it give me an
  error about my AUTOEXEC.BAT.  Does any only have any suggestion?

The file NTLDR is the boot file for Windows NT.  You probably have
installed with the "dual boot" option, so when you boot, a small
program prompts you whether to jump to the NT or DOS boot file.  You
seem to have deleted the NT boot file.  I would try to reinstall NT on
your disk.

I would think that even if you have deleted NTLDR you would be able
boot DOS using the dual boot loader.  The Win16 programs are probably
looking for AUTOEXEC.BAT on the boot floppy.  You might try copying
the one from your hard disk to the boot floppy (after backing
everything up).

  P.S.  How long before the next BETA?

I don't know.  Does anyone else?

Date: 26 Jan 93 13:24:53 GMT
Comments: Gated by NETNEWS@AUVM.AMERICAN.EDU

Yeah, I too can swear that 3.30 runs Windows faster than 5.0. The only
problem with DOS 3.30 that I know of is the 32MB limitation for a disk
partition. Only 4 partitions are allowed per disk, so all I could
possibly get was 120M HDs under 3.30.

I remember DOS 3.30 taking up as little as 70K below the code fence
(640K). 5.0 shows ~120K - if you delete your CONFIG.SYS and your
AUTOEXEC.BAT (not a good idea) :) 180K is a reasonable number if you
have Smartdrv, Stacker and some network. Load some high and you'll
save 20K from below the code fence.

A general rule I keep in mind when developing software is "Small is
beautiful". Small is also faster, 10 instructions invariably execute
faster than 100 instructions. The overhead of opening a file, reading,
writing etc. surely effects the response time of Windows.

I think the problem I"ve been having is due to the Serial chip MSD says
says i have the 8xxx chip (wish I had the 16xxxx 16byte buffered chip)

So, I think the problem might be with losing data.  Try removing some
of your TSR's, upping the active window priority in the 386 control panel,
removing smartdrive.  I belive there are also some SYSTEM.INI settings
that might help.

Greetings.

I'm running up against the 16MB XMS limit in HIMEM.SYS: I've got 20MB
RAM in my PC, but Himem (hence Windows) can only see 16MB of it, so
4MB is being wasted.

I've been told that there's an undocumented feature involving Himem
and Ramdrive, so that, if nothing else, I can use the 4MB above 16MB
for smartdrv and/or ramdrive (for setting temp=).

Does anyone know how to do this? the solution is supposed to be
available via KnowledgeBase, but the stuff on the Developer's Net
CD-ROM isn't recent enough.

Thanks for any help.

Subject:      My Free Resources gets eaten !

Hello everyone,
I have an interesting problem, or something that  I don't understand, you see
the amount of resources free reported by Windows decreases when I run an
application which is normal, so when I'm running 3-4 applications plus a
screen saver I get 65% free resources, however when I quit those applications
the amount of free resources doesn't return to the same value I had when I
started Windows. any explanation as sometime it gets really annoying (24%) and
I have to restart Windows.

thanks

Give the command SYSCON (system configuration), and the User Information option
on the resulting menu will give you a list of all the ids on a particular
server/network.  Pressing enter against any of these ids gives you an option
to view the users name.

Hi,

from what I know all you have to do is insert some spaces... the actual number
of spaces depends on the ICON SPACING value you have selected in Control Panel's
   Desktop Setup...

Nick.

You need to put a wimpmt variable in your environment before entering Windows.

Mine is:

set winpmt=Win $p$g

Windows will swap the winpmt and the prompt commands while you are in a Dos
box.  Thanks to Brian Livingston for this one.

Any C++ people like to give me some help with a beginning C++ problem?  I
think one of my classes in one of my header files is declared wrong.   The
Borland compiler tells me lthat I am missing a ')', where there does not
appear to be the need for a ')'.
