Control Panel Accepts Invalid Timeslice Values

ID: Q59638

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a

SYMPTOMS

Valid timeslice values for the 386 enhanced mode section of the Control Panel are 1 to 10,000. However, the Control Panel allows you to enter invalid values without producing an error message.

The minimum timeslice may be set manually by keying a number directly, instead of using the arrow buttons, to 99,999. Windows truncates this number to 9,999 and does not return an error message. If the arrow buttons are used to increase the timeslice setting, it goes no higher than 1,000.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows version 3.0. This problem does not occur in later versions of Windows or in Windows for Workgroups.
