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

Problem

Solutions: The customer has an 80386 computer and WordPerfect 5.1. He said that since he's installed DOS 5.0, he has had locking problems when editing his document in WP. He tried the /32 switch and that fixed his problem. In-house testing has shown that the main conflicts and problems with memory and DOS 5.0 are in how the system is configured and not with the drivers.

Another customer was able to correct this problem by using the /32 and /R options before loading his expanded memory manager and HIMEM.SYS in his CONFIG.SYS file.
