│ ░░░░ Using TERMINATE with WINDOWS 3.1 or 3.11 ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ │

NOTE: It seems as if "Windows 3.11 for Workgroups" does not need any of the
following changes.
To install Terminate under Windows, just create a group and create three
items in the group. Use the 3 PIF files to start the programs, so you don't
have to worry about setting them up yourself. You could use the icons found
in this directory as well.
Windows 3.1 installation tips
=============================
To use Terminate with Windows, we provide TERMINAT.PIF and TERMINAT.ICO.
But you must also make some adjustments to the Windows setup first.
Edit SYSTEM.INI
───────────────
Under [386Enh]:
Com1AutoAssign=0
In the Windows menu: Main / Control Panel / 386 Enhanced:
it should read NEVER WARN at the comport you use.
The comport used for modem must not be autoassigned by Windows. If you
use COM4, just enter Com4AutoAssign=0
Change the values to match the correct address for the comports.
COM1BASE=3F8h
COM2BASE=2F8h
COM3BASE=3E8h
COM4BASE=2E8h
For other values that can be changed try reading the Windows documentation.
COMIrqSharing=true (This only has effect on EISA and Microchannel machines)
COMBoostTime=10
COM1Buffer=1024
COM2Buffer=1024
COM3Buffer=1024
COM4Buffer=1024
If your modem has a 16550 UART, you will also have to install another
communication driver to support 16550 UART FIFO in DOS-windows.
Use a driver such as CHCOMB.386 (CHCOMB.ARJ which can be downloaded from
DAN BBS) or CyberCom.
To use the soundblaster card, enter under [386Enh]:
DMABUFFERSIZE=059
If you have many problems using the Windows coms-driver, you could use the
communication ports directly by changing WIN.INI to:
COM1:=COM1.DOS or
COM2:=COM2.DOS or
COM3:=COM3.DOS or
COM4:=COM4.DOS
Information from Microsoft:
───────────────────────────
Windows cannot use a serial port if the address is to the right of the
missing port. An example of this problem could be that the modem is on COM4
and COM3 is not physically present.
Without a physical COM3, the BIOS will find COM4 on address 02E8 and will
call it COM3 in the BIOS field. This confuses Windows, so it will not find
COM4 and think that COM3 is on 02E8/IRQ4.
This behaviour is normal for many BIOS's and can be fixed with COMxIRQ=-1
in SYSTEM.INI under the [386Enh] section. For this example, the following
line should be inserted in SYSTEM.INI:
COM3IRQ=-1
