DOCUMENT:Q75463 22-NOV-1999 [msdos] TITLE :Plus Hardcard II Drivers and MS-DOS 5.x PRODUCT :Microsoft Disk Operating System PROD/VER:MS-DOS:5.0,5.0a; WINDOWS:3.0,3.0a,3.1,3.11 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft MS-DOS operating system versions 5.0, 5.0a - Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a, 3.1, 3.11 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= The drivers available for the Plus Hardcard II are both compatible with the Microsoft MS-DOS 5 Upgrade and with Microsoft Windows. Versions 1.5 and 1.7 of the ATDOSHC2.SYS drivers work with MS-DOS 5.0, but may have trouble with EMM386.EXE or enhanced mode Windows. If using EMM386, the address range of the adapter must be excluded using the X= parameter with EMM386.EXE. If using enhanced mode Windows, the address range of the adapter must be excluded using the EMMExclude= command in the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file. If you have other problems loading a Plus Hardcard driver, make sure it is the last device loaded in the CONFIG.SYS file. MORE INFORMATION ================ ATDOSHC2.SYS version 1.5 is dated 5/17/90, and ATDOSHC2.SYS version 1.7 is dated 11/7/90. Plus Development has a bulletin board that can be reached by calling (408) 434-1664. A Plus Hardcard II customer may download the latest driver, version 1.7, but it is not necessarily recommended, because version 1.5 is fully compatible with MS-DOS 5.0. Other 386-specific memory managers and software, including QEMM, 386 to the Max, and NetRoom may also require that the address range used by the Plus Hardcard be excluded.
