#AAPro 1.3 and QDPMI
My 386 system uses DOS 5.0, QEMM 7.01 and SuperStor Pro with all drives
compressed except for a small 2 meg partition used for QEMM and bootup.
After installing ANI Pro 1.3 on one of the compressed drives, I was unable
to get it to run at all, from DOS with QEMM returning Exception #13 errors
(I think). QDPMI.SYS is installed. A bunch of non-ANI files got corrupted
in the process. I was able to get ANI Pro to start from Windows 3.1 but
apparently due to the corrupted files from trying to run it from DOS, I got
a crash when I tried to exit from Ani Pro. The end result was that I had to
do some extensive SSPro disk repair and re-install Windows to get rid of all
the corrupted files.
[1] Are there known problems with this particular configuration and are
there any workarounds or fixes?
[2] Would it be safer to run Ani Pro from Windows rather than DOS? This has
been successful with other DPMI programs in the past, probably because the
Windows DPMI mode is very solid and because QEMM is out of the picture when
running in Windows.
All suggestions welcome. Thanks.
