Well, I decided to try putting TR on an older WIN95 Notebook tonight before
the NCCC pre-NAQP test run. This was a disaster for me, as was getting
some erratic behaviors...like things blinking on & off on the screen
& weird CW at times. This all was on top of certain operator QLF, of
course...and a need to more thoroughly work through some S&P functionalities.
But the guys gave me some new tips...including to reboot the computer into
MS-DOS mode instead which I tried. Unfortunately, TR now shows all
"squashed" with much left over blank/black screen above & below.
So I went into the DOS Properties, and set it for Full Screen, and also
individually re-set and re-booted at the Default, 25, 43 & 50 lines options
for the display but always got the same results...a "squashed" appearing TR
which just won't do. I'm baffled!!!
I'm also concerned if there is sufficient memory for 5,000+ QSOs. Here's
what 'mem' yields:
MEMORY TYPE TOTAL USED FREE
Lower 640K 28K 612K
Upper 139K 139K 0K
Reserved 256K 256K 0K
Extended(XMS) 31,733K 97K 31,456K
----------------------
Total Memory 32,768K 520K 32,248K
Largest Executable Program Size 612K
Largest Free Upper Memory Block 0K
MS-DOS is Resident in the High Memorary Area

Thanks much for any help with this.
