Virtual Card Services for OS/2
Note:
DOS Object includes DOS program,
Windows program, DOS full-screen,
DOS window, WIN-OS/2 full-screen,
and WIN-OS/2 window.
When you use a DOS object in the OS/2 environment, OS/2 Virtual
Card Services provides a Card Services interface so that you can
use the DOS PC Card device driver for the DOS object.
To use Virtual Card Services in a DOS object, do the following:
1
Move the mouse pointer to the DOS object icon; then
click on the right mouse button.
2
Select Settings.
3
Select Session.
4
Select DOS (WIN-OS/2) Settings.
5
Select All DOS (DOS and WIN-OS/2) Settings.
6
Set PCMCIA_CARD_SERVICES as On.
7
Set PCMCIA_RELEASE_LEVEL as 2.1.
8
Set MEM_EXCLUDE_REGIONS as C8000–CFFFF.
9
Specify the PC Card device driver name to the
DOS_DEVICE.
Even when a PC Card is enabled in a DOS object, the device driver
or the application program may not work, or their performance may
not be what you expect.
