Parity Error - Try /NE To Isolate Problem |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: Whenever the customer tried to start WordPerfect, she would receive a parity error with a question mark (?) for the address. When the customer used the /NE startup option, she was able to run WP without any problems. The BIOS doesn't display addresses of parity errors above 1M since memory is mappable to any address above 1M. Therefore, displaying an address could be more misleading than helpful. By using /NE WP wouldn't be using expanded memory, and the memory problem wouldn't be an issue. There are many memory test utilities to help users isolate such failures. |
