Windows 95/98/Me Virtual-Mode DOS Driver Installation Results
The Windows 95/98/Me PCLTA-20 card installation software will prompt the installer to
automatically add the virtual-mode DOS driver. This driver is small in size, and allows
a DOS session under Windows to have access to the PCLTA-20 through the device
driver running as a part of Windows. The driver will not function unless a Windows
session is running and the PCLTA-20 device driver is installed.
The following line will be added to the
CONFIG.SYS
file:
DEVICE=<
directory of file>
\LDVVDD.SYS /Dn /Ln
/D
n
where (n) is 1-9. This defines LON1-LON9 and corresponds to devices 1-9 as
determined by the PCLTA-20 device driver under Windows. This parameter is
optional; the default is “1”.
/Ln
where (n) is 1-9. This defines the
logical
device 1-9 as determined by the
PCLTA-20 device driver under Windows. This parameter is optional, the
default is the value determined by the /Dn parameter. This allows overriding
the actual device accessed from being based on the /Dn parameter.
For example, using /D9 /L1 will in fact create a DOS driver named LON9 that will
actually access the 1st PCLTA-20 in the system. Without the /L1 parameter you would
access the 9th device, as determined by the /D9 option. These options are typically
needed when more than one L
