I have Borland C++ with Application Frameworks, and I am trying to get
it to function under OS/2 2.0 ... I can make any of the windows apps
work right, plus any of the real mode DOS apps (TASM, MAKER) are fine
as well.  When running BC or BBC or TASMX or MAKE, I get nothing but
garbage ... when running DPMIRES, I get the same.  When I try DPMIINST,
I get a message to the following:

  Your EMS manager does not provide VCPI, and thus the DPMI server cannot
  run from extended memory.  Remove your EMS driver from your CONFIG.SYS
  file and reboot.

Okay ... I thought OS/2 was providing the DPMI services ... and it
shouldn't need to load Borland's DPMI stuff (although it must be
trying) ...

Does anyone know of a fix?  Or something I haven't tried?  I cannot
get this thing to work ... and I need this to be functional.

Send email ...

Thanks!
