Ärende: AIDA16 - Everest
========================
TW>EV>I got around to installing AIDA16 on my W95 P133 and it works very well
TW>EV>in pure DOS Mode. Of course you knew that.

TW>EV>It works fine on my 486-66 DOS/Win3.1 box too.

TW>EV>I tried it again in pure DOS Mode on the W98SE P90 box and it stopped
TW>EV>showing the pages after page 31 and went to scrolling garbled stuff
TW>EV>constantly up the screen.

TW>Interesting. I have used it on Several 333's/500's and even a 1000
TW>sucessfully.
TW>Now of course some of the stuff that came out After development was
TW>stopped may cause problems. My AIDA 16 files are dated November 2003.

TW>BUT I always run it from a DOS boot disk and not in a DOS screen under
TW>windows.

Tom, The AIDA16 that Jay sent me is also dated November 2003.

When I mentioned "pure DOS Mode" above I meant that I rebooted and
pressed the F8 key and selected Command Prompt.

I did that with both the 95 and 98SE boxes, it just gave me problems if
I wanted to view information on Pages 32 and 33 of AIDA with the 98SE
box.

Everything from page 1 to 31 and backwards from page 45 to 34 is
viewable OK, altho I don't think I can make a AIDA Report on the 98SE
P90 box, I'll have to try that out next time I have it on.

I haven't thought about making a DOS boot disk for running AIDA16,
altho I have made ERD disks for both 95 and 98SE.

How did you make a DOS boot disk?

The only one I have is a 5 1/4" MS DOS 5.0 two disk set,
it will perform a boot on start up in my 5 1/4" A: drive on the 486 box.

I don't use MS DOS 5.0 anymore, I found a CD with IBM PC DOS 7.0 at a
Salvation Army Thrift store and have been using it ever since.

IBM PC DOS 7.0 is sorta equal to MS DOS 6.22, NOT the 7.x version that
Win 98SE has.
