AST PREMIUM EXEC 386 AND HEALTHDYNE SOFTWARE
PROBLEM: When the Healthdyne database software accesses the math co-
processor in a Premium Exec 386/SX-20 the following error
message "Stack Frame Error" displays and then returns to a dos
prompt.
AFFECTED
SYSTEMS: Premium Exec 386/SX-20 and Premium Exec 386SX-25
CAUSE: The software when started with a batch file "GO 1" mis-
identifies the L.C.D. screen and the environment created is
incorrect. The correct environment is created by the software
if the screen is identified as color CGA, EGA, or VGA display.
SOLUTION: Revision "B" of the software has been released by Healthdyne
that detects the display attached thereby correcting the above
problem. A temporary solution is to start the program with
the "GO 2" batch file, which identifies the screen as a VGA
display.
