Re: Re[2]: DOS error 21 when executing Win32s programs



You will find 32-bit file access in Windows 3.1 by doing this:
        Click on main
        Click on control panel
        Click on 386 Enhanced
        Click on Virtual Memory
        Click on Change
        at the bottom of the window will be a check box for 32-bit access
Be careful that windows doesn't change your size to something really large.
Also, some computers will not work with 32-bit access if sleep or 
hibernation occurs at exactly the wrong time.  This is not true with TPs.
