Under real DOS and Win95, sometimes XGS-DOS refuses to
start, showing a bunch of numbers and an FPU trap. Try to
relaunch it until it works ! I don’t understand why it
crashes like this and I’ve never succeeded to localize what
is causing the problems under DOS and Win95, whereas
XGS-DOS works without problem under OS/2 Warp 4.0...
XGS-DOS will NOT work under WinNT. I’ve tried it several
times and I’ve got the following results :
– got twice the infamous blue screen with a bunch of
hexadecimal numbers.
– the machine freezes three times : black screen, no mouse
and no keyboard. Only possible issue : the reset button.
– the usual bunch of numbers and the FPU trap.
Therefore don’t try to play with XGS-DOS on your NT server
machine. You’ll be responsible for what you’re doing ;-)
As XGS-DOS is designed and developed under OS/2 Warp 4.0,
it works very well without problems and no crashes at all.
