Firstly, I apologise if you've seen this before, but I'm not sure if my
previous posting was distributed. Our modem went down the day I posted
my previous article.

There are a number of things to watch out for when using Codeview for 
Windows with 8514/A mointors. These are, in no particular order:-

	1. Windows must be set up to for 8514/A mode with the 
	   setup program. If you don't do this, the system will
	   crash when you try to use Codeview.

	2. You must specify /8 on the Codeview command line. Failure
	   to do so will result in a tasteful message box saying there
	   is no second monitor attached. (Why can't it detect the 8514
	   automatically?)

	3. If you are running DOS 4.00, the 43 line mode (/43) will
	   not work in 8514 mode if ANSI.SYS is installed.

	4. You may experience problems using the standard retail VGA
	   driver. If this is the case, use the one supplied with the
	   SDK instead.

When Codeview is running correctly, the application being debugged is
displayed on the 8514, while Codeview uses the other monitor. As far as
I know, this is the only way it works.

Using Codeview with Microsoft CV6.0 PWB on my PS/2 70, I have found that
you cannot debug applications from within PWB. Also, on one occasion,
running Windows from within PWB trashed my hard disc when exiting Windows.

I hope this is of help.
