WP Locking Up When Entering - Try "/w" Startu |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: WP 5.1 always locks when starting the program. After reinstalling WP, the user cannot even get to a clear screen. Currently, the customer receives the standard messages (other copies, backup) and then the programs locks up at the *Please wait* message. It is necessary to reboot the computer at that point. The customer has never gotten WP to run. There is no expanded memory. Solutions: This customer tried the startup option of wp/w=60. After using this option, the customer was able to enter into the program, print, use View Document and several other features. I informed the customer that the only thing this option does is regulate how much workspace WP 5.1 is going to use. It also forces the program to use a different portion of memory. They may have a bad portion of higher memory. |
