WFWG: Windows for Workgroups 3.1 Hardware Compatibility List

 Last reviewed: November 22, 1994
Article ID: Q92717
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows for Workgroups, version 3.1

SUMMARY

The Hardware Compatibility Test (HCT) is a series of tests run from a shell within Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.1. The tests are run in standard mode only for 80286-based systems, and in both standard and 386 enhanced mode for 80386- or 80486-based systems. The tests evaluate such things as:

  • Memory-resident programs
  • Screen display
  • Interpretation of keystrokes and mouse actions
  • Performance of selected tasks within Windows File Manager and Windows Print Manager

The HCT includes additional tests for computers with math coprocessors and multimedia capabilities.

If the results of the HCT show that the system has satisfactorily passed compatibility requirements, the system may be added to the Windows HCL and can display the Windows Compatible logo.

The following computers, displays, printers, networks, pointing devices, and keyboards have been certified for use with Microsoft Windows version 3.1. This list was current at the time it was published (April 1992). Additional systems may have been certified subsequent to publication and may not be listed below.
