Using the correct DOS code page for the demos.
Q. I'm trying to connect Swat to the demo and I get this output: WARNING(os2::OS2Init): NOT_MONITORING_JFT Death due to ILLEGAL_HANDLE CheckHandleLegal+32: MOV AX, 26 (001ah) Execution died in patient geos: CheckHandleLegal+32: MOV AX, 26 (001ah) *** No explanation available *** Interrupt 3: Breakpoint trap Stopped in FatalError, address 152eh:01bch CheckHandleLegal+32: MOV AX, 26 (001ah) (geos:0) 2 => A. See the answer below. Q. I'm using a European version of NT and using the Nokia 9000 NT SDK. When the demos are started they crash in the DOSInitUseCodePage() routine. I've narrowed down the problem to the different DOS code page (i.e. GEOS can't find the code page it wants). Is there an easy work-around for this? A. You might have a command called "us" which switches the command prompt to the U.S. code page. If not, you can also try using the "mode con cp select=437" command. Using this command you will switch that command prompt to use the U.S. code page. There might be other code pages on your machine, which you can select to in a similar manner.
