I recently updated my dos from 5.0 to 6.2. Now when I run Ani Pro 1.3 the screen goes blank with just a small cursor in the top left corner. Nothing happens after that and I have to reboot. The system is a 486-33 Zeos system. The problem is with EMM386, when I rem the line out the program will run. Thanks for your reponse. Bob Guarasci

Do you have any switches also being loaded on the EMM386 line? Sometimes a software switch, like NOEMS, is the culprit. -Brian

Brian My EMM386 lines has the following: RAM x=d000-dfff h=128 the exculsion is for a Targa 16 board. The handles are needed for Rio, which is a software package for the Targa board. Thanks againg Bob Guarasci

Bob, PMJI, are you using RIO 4, or higher? I don't think versions 5 or 6 (running under the Phar Lap DOS Extender) need the Handles statment any longer. For that matter, they don't even need expanded memory (extended or XMS is just fine), although you might need it for other applications. The exclusion of D000-DFFF is correct, but you might check the syntax. I use QEMM, and D000-DFFF is right, but I thought EMM386 used D000-E000 to reference that same range.
