Hi all,
I just found out about arachne yesterday and decided to test it out
last night. The first time I tried to install it, it worked beatifully on
my Compaq Deskpro 4/33i with 8 MB memory. Then for some
reason that I can't remember, I rebooted the computer and went
into the arachne browser. The problem was that with this particular
computer and video card, you have to load VESA drivers everytime
you reboot. (I suppose I could get around this by putting it in my
autoexec.bat, but I don't use it that often.) Anyway, because
VESA wasn't loaded, arachne said that it couldn't recognize the
video mode (I had been using VESA before), so it restarted the
setup program. I tried to exit the program and did so successfully.
Loaded VESA and tried again, but now when I tried to go online, I
couldn't access any sites. It said that the site couldn't be found (or
something like that) and to check setup. I tried to resetup Arachne
numerous times with the same results. I even tried to reinstall and
I still get the same message.
The one thing that I did notice was that after logging into my ISP,
there were 3 lines that said something about Out of bounds error or
something along those lines. Does anybody know what I am
talking about or could help me?
Also, I was thinking that it might be nice if the program, when it
couldn't recognize the video mode or something, would ask if you
wanted to enter the setup or exit the program. I know that would
have saved me a lot of problems right now.
TIA,
Matt
