No Way Around Corrupt Swap File on True Pen-Based MachineLast reviewed: November 22, 1994Article ID: Q81744 |
The information in this article applies to:
SUMMARYIf Microsoft Windows is running on a pen-only machine without a keyboard, it is not possible to get past the text-based warning if a permanent swap file becomes corrupted.
MORE INFORMATIONThe corrupted swap file warning is a text-based warning that prompts you to respond with yes/no keyboard input. If this error message is received on a true pen-only machine with no keyboard, it is not possible to reply because the Windows 3.1 Pen Extensions are not loaded. To get past the warning message, turn off the machine, plug in a keyboard, and turn the machine back on. This allows the yes/no text-based warning to be answered. Once you have entered Windows 3.1, you can use the pen to delete the permanent swap file and create a new one.
