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

Problem

Solutions: As with WordPerfect 5.0, customers will need to use the /NK startup option with WP 5.1 when they are using an IRMA board. If customers do not use the switch, the keyboard will lock when WP loads. Customers may also need to use the /NC or the /NE startup options with /NK. Unfortunately, using the /NK startup option will disable the F11 and F12 function keys on customers' enhanced keyboards.

One customer was running IRMA-2 and WP under DESQview. This customer could not switch between the mainframe and WP by pressing the Alt key; the computer locked. The customer was also using QEMM 5.0 and had run Manifest (a diagnostic program that ships with QEMM 5.0). Manifest changed the computer's setup when the customer used the optimize option. Part of this change included adding a RAM statement to the QEMM command line. The customer removed the RAM statement from the QEMM command line and used the /NC and /NK startup options with WP to solve the problem.

Another customer solved a locking problem by not using the DOS 5.0 Shell to load and switch between IRMA and WP.
