I have been made aware that there is no description of the error I was refering previously here on the list. That's true, sorry, it was described in BugZilla. But a brief overview is:
- it requires Himem + FD Emm386 to be loaded - it occurs when FD Himem has been started with parameter /NOX2MAX32 or if another Emm386 compatible XMS host is used (MS Himem or QHimem2), which lacks this (NO)X2MAX32 parameters at all - it occurs with (some?) DOS extended applications (my test case were DOOM, HERETIC, ...). Real-mode apps are not affected. - it occurs on real machines (usually an instant reboot when starting the application), on qemu (usually a "freeze") and in vmware (which smartly tells that a "host stack" corruption occured). The virtual environments were setup with 128 MB Ram. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
