DOS games issues
Because MS-DOS games run as a virtual machine and do not like being
interrupted, it is not advisable to run Windows 95 applications or BIOS functions
such as power save and hard disk cashing at the same time. We recommend that you disable
these functions when playing games or running DOS application.
Apricot answer phone issue
We recommend that you disable the apricot answer phone, fax or message
centre when playing DOS games or applications.
If the machine receives an incoming call it will minimise and hang the
game, this also has the effect on taking a long time to answer the line and thus having
the probability of the other party hanging up, or in the case of a fax machine dropping
the line.
Power save and standby issues
We recommend that you disable both Apricot Power Save, Windows Screen
Saver and any timed BIOS power saver functions. This also applies to pressing the standby
button.
The machine may hang and you will have to restart your game play and
probably run scan disk before loading Windows 95 . The risking getting into a DOS
loop is also increased.
