Phil, on the machine with the Tseng card that you installed MSDOS 6 onto (and
thus stopped Imagine), try this experiment: start Imagine with
IMAGINE > ERROR.TXT
That will send Imagine's error message into a file called error.txt. After
Imagine drops you back to the dos prompt, check that file and see if it doesn't
contain the message I reported earlier, "failed to enlarge CS/DS init_mem()
failed."
I've gotten that same message on two machines running MSDOS 6. The message
actually comes up on the screen on these two, but it's too fast to catch the
whole thing. Sending the output to a file captures it. Using SETVER to try to
trick Imagine into thinking you're using dos 5.0 won't work either – it looks
like a real memory problem with dos 6.
