TSR Warning Booting WIN95 When McAfee BrightWorks Installed

• Microsoft Windows 95
• Microsoft Windows 98

SYMPTOMS

When you start Windows on a computer that has McAfee BrightWorks version 2.00 installed, you may receive a message that states that Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) programs are not supported in the Windows NetWare logon script processor.

CAUSE

TSRs are not recommended for use in the Windows NetWare logon script processor.

RESOLUTION

The TSR the warning refers to is unloaded later in the script; therefore, McAfee BrightWorks is not affected by this TSR.

MORE INFORMATION

TSRs run in the Windows NetWare logon script processor are unloaded when the NWLSCON window closes after the logon script processing, and are therefore not global to Windows. This differs from the MS-DOS-level Novell NetX and VLM NetWare clients, because TSRs loaded in logon scripts in real mode are present in memory before entering protected mode, and are therefore global to Windows. NWLSCON warns the user when this case occurs. NWLSCON only detects when a TSR has been loaded; it does not detect when a TSR has been unloaded in the same logon script.
