Dos 6 and PC286
Ron
My problem with DOS 5 was using the advanced features such as loading
dos HIGH and problems with TSR's. Programs like PCTools would lock up if
made resident. On the other hand, the database program I was using had no
problems and in fact benefitted from the extra memory.
When you say your XT is accellerated do you mean it is just a faster XT
or have you converted it to a 286. If it is still an XT then perhaps that
is why you haven't had any problems.
Also, I had one of the first DOS5 upgrades that where available here so
perhaps it had a few bugs in it still. When I called C= about it they
said that DOS5 wouldn't work correctly. From my experience they were
correct. Or perhaps it is simply the rev. of my BB…who knows?
Thanks for your comments.
