The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows operating system versions 3.0, 3.0a

SYMPTOMS

If you run Microsoft Windows 3.0 in enhanced mode, you may experience problems printing and/or problems running the MS-DOS Prompt when you use Brightworks Development Site Lock 3.1 with a Novell network. Symptoms include the following:

When you try to print from Windows in enhanced mode, Windows may not print or may lock up while trying to print.
When you run the MS-DOS Prompt full-screen from Windows in enhanced mode, the following error message may appear:
```
      APPLICATION HAS VIOLATED SYSTEM INTEGRITY
```

WORKAROUNDS

Printing

Brightworks Development suggests the following workaround:

Run Control Panel, select Printers and choose Configure.
Change the printer port to LPT1.OS2.
Choose OK twice and exit the Control Panel.

NOTE: When you print with the Site Lock 3.1 utility, the LPTx.OS2 workaround/testing port is used. As a result, printouts may not be reliable when you print graphics to non-PostScript printers.

Running the MS-DOS Prompt

To correct problems when you run MS-DOS Prompt, Brightworks Development suggests that you do the following:

Use the PIF Editor to set up a PIF file for COMMAND.COM, as follows:

    - Under Display Usage, select Full Screen, and under Execution,
      select Exclusive.

-or-

    - Under Display Usage, select Windowed, and under Execution, select
      Background.
