SUMMARY
A &quot;Floating Point Error&quot; may occur when using an Inboard 386 that does not have a math coprocessor with QuickBasic Version 4.00b or 4.50. The error occurs when the Inboard 386 is configured as though it has a math coprocessor when it does not have one. Configuring the board properly solves the problem.

The &quot;Floating Point Error&quot; does not occur with QuickBasic Version 4.00 because the presence of the coprocessor is detected differently than it is in Versions 4.00b and 4.50.
