Hello, all. Here is another issue arising from my check-out of the new
Service Release 2.
I find that loading EMM386.EXE can cause Ctrl-Alt-Del to fail. I boot
fine, then press Ctrl-Alt-Del from the DOS prompt. The screen goes black,
but the video and system BIOS boot messages never reappear. Very
occasionally the keyboard is locked altogether and does not execute
Ctrl-Alt-Del.
I trigger the problem even with this minimal DOS configuration:
CONFIG.SYS (from either the hard drive or floppy)
DOS=UMB
DEVICE=C:\FDOS\BIN\HIMEM.EXE
DEVICE=C:\FDOS\BIN\EMM386.EXE
That's not minimal. Recommended minimal is EMM386 X=TEST. Most minimal
would be EMM386 NOEMS NOVDS X=A000-EFFF.
You should also try NOALTBOOT option since you're having problems with
Ctrl-Alt-Del. ALTBOOT is the default condition.
