We had been running nupop 2.0.2 (protected mode) in our labs with no
problems, but updated to IBM DOS 6.1and on some set of these machines (VGA
as opposed to SVGA) nupop fails immediately with the termination message at
the end of this note. Nupop 2.10 also fails.
It does load and run properly under enhanced 386 windows. Futhermore, by
setting the variable dpmimem=maxmem 4096, nupop will run under this dos
configuration. It does not matter if I set this value to max memory
available, as long as I set it to something.
Here is the error termination messages:
