APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11
This article was previously published under Q106082
SYMPTOMS
When you upgrade a Windows 3.1 or Windows for Workgroups 3.1 installation to Windows for Workgroups 3.11, Setup may not detect existing 32-Bit Disk Access drivers. As a result, Setup may add a second set of entries for the default 32-Bit Disk Access drivers, resulting in an error message at startup.
CAUSE
Windows for Workgroups Setup does not check for a path statement when looking for 32-Bit Disk Access drivers. For example, it would find
DEVICE=CPQWDCTRL.386
but would not find
DEVICE=C:\CPQ\CPQWDCTL.386
or
DEVICE=C:\CPQINT13.386
RESOLUTION
To work around this problem, edit the SYSTEM.INI file and remove the following lines from the [386Enh] section:
device=*wdctrl device=*int13
Additional query words: 3.11 fastdisk cpqint13.386 cpq int13 int 13 386 cpqwdctrl.386 access drivers
