WordPerfect 5.1 and Expanded Memory Under She |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: When started from Library's Shell, WordPerfect 5.1 will only use 50% of available expanded memory at the time it is invoked. This means that if a customer has one megabyte of expanded memory and they are trying to run WP 5.1 under the Shell, the /R will not load WP.FIL and the user will receive an error message. 5.1's WP.FIL file requires approximately 585K of expanded memory to load and WP is only going to be allotted 512K under the above scenario. This problem can be corrected through the use of one of the startup options in WP 5.1. The /W switch has two parameters with WP 5.1 (e.g., /W-150,600). The first number specifies the number of kilobytes of conventional memory that is allotted to WP to use for caching. The second number specifies the number of kilobytes of expanded memory which are allotted to WP. As is evident, specifying at least 600 for the second parameter of the switch will provide WP 5.1 with sufficient expanded memory to successfully use the /r switch. |
