The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: Each time a user tried to print a graphic the network beeped and the computer locked. The customer was running WordPerfect on a LANtastic 4.0 network and was using MS-DOS 5.0 and 4M of extended memory on the computer. Solutions: Starting WP with the /NE switch corrected the beeping and locking problem. The customer contacted LANtastic who instructed him to enter the following commands in the CONFIG.SYS file:
DEVICE=HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=EMM386.EXE 4096 X=D800-DFFF RAM
DOS=HIGH
INSTALL=C:\DOS\SHARE.EXE /L:300 /F:2048

Adding the above lines to the CONFIG.SYS file corrected the problem, and the /NE switch was not longer required. LANtastic stated that the order of the codes is very important. They also recommended that the customer not use Fast Open.

Note: The number 4096 in the above commands is RAM, the x is for exclude, and the address is for LANtastic's 2mip board.
