Erratic Behavior with Enhanced Mode Windows and LANtastic 4.xLast reviewed: November 21, 1994Article ID: Q89302 |
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSYour system may behave erratically while running Windows in 386 enhanced mode while set up for LANtastic 4.x. When you attempt to access the network, (for example, by clicking on a network drive in File Manager), the system may stop responding (hang) or exit to the MS-DOS command prompt.
RESOLUTIONTo resolve this problem, make the following changes to the [386Enh] section of your SYSTEM.INI file:
MORE INFORMATIONIf you installed the LANtastic 4.x driver that ships with Windows 3.1, then NetAsynchTimeOut=50 was placed in the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file. Installing the LANtastic 4.1 driver from the [drive]:\LANTASTI directory correctly adds NetAsynchTimeOut=5. Changing the NetAsynchTimeOut= setting from 50 to 5 seems to resolve the erratic problems encountered when accessing the network. The LANtastic product included here is manufactured by Artisoft, a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
