Running AutoResume with Toshiba T2000SX/T3100SX

ID: Q77111

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a

SUMMARY

Included with the First Time Package that comes with the Toshiba T2000SX, T2000SXe, and T3100SX computers is an addendum that details using the AutoResume feature of the computer with Windows 3.0. This feature only applies to enhanced mode.

MORE INFORMATION

The file BIOSXLAT.386 is a virtual mode device driver for Windows 3.0. Using this device driver will allow the AutoResume feature of a Toshiba T3100SX or T2000SX to function correctly while running Windows 3.0 in 386 enhanced mode.

This file does NOT support AutoResume in standard mode or real mode (that is invoking "win /s" or "win /r").

Installation

Copy the file BIOSXLAT.386 to the main Windows directory, (C:\WINDOWS by default).

Using a text editor, modify the Windows SYSTEM.INI file in the [386Enh] section as follows: Locate:
```
device=*biosxlat 
```
Replace with:
```
device=biosxlat.386 
```
Add a .386 extension and remove the asterisk.

NOTE: Windows now automatically loads the AutoResume driver. This allows the AutoResume feature to function correctly when a normal power-off occurs while you are in Windows and running in 386 enhanced mode.
