AST RESEARCH TECHNICAL BULLETIN TB-0251 12/18/86
SPERRY IT AND DESQVIEW
To make the Sperry DESQview/EEMS compatible, the following
steps need to be executed:
1. Set the IT motherboard for the "B" option (switches 3 &
5 on).
2. Then set the AST EEMS board to start at 256K (SW2 -
everything on except for SW #6) and use 384K to
backfill.*
3. Run "IT-SETUP", out of Diagnostics, and select option
"1". The two choices are "0" or "1" and, in this case,
use option "1".
4. Next, set "expansion" to "0.5" (not .5, but 0.5).
5. Install REMM.SYS from SuperPak 6.10 (or later) in the
CONFIG.SYS file, and DESQview 1.11 should run.
For further information, the customer should refer to page
three of Chapter seven of the "IT" User Manual.
*The 384K being sacrificed for DESQview from the motherboard
must remain physically installed on the motherboard. Empty
sockets will cause parity errors.
