When used on an AT&T PC6300, Microsoft Word Ver. 3.0 should
come up in high-resolution (640 X 400) mode when the command
line is simply:
word
This doesn't happen, however. It comes up in one of the
lower resolution modes instead. A software patch is needed
to correct this little problem. Use ddddeeeebbbbuuuugggg and the wwwwoooorrrrdddd....ccccoooommmm
file.
Do the following:
type debug word.com [return]
display -
type a 3b1a [return]
display 304A:3B1A
type jmp 3b3c [return]
display 304A:3B1C
type [return]
display -
type w [return]
display writing ADD2 bytes
type q [return]
display [your system prompt]
Now, type wwwwoooorrrrdddd and the program will come up in the 640 X 400
mode. This fix was given to me by the Microsoft helpline.
