SUMMARY

The Texas Instruments Travel Mate 2000 is a 286 laptop with VGA display, a 20 MB hard drive, and 1 MB of memory. This computer does NOT run in standard mode unless the hardware setup is changed as follows:

  1. Reboot.

  2. Press CTRL+ALT+SETUP (do this twice for hardware setup).

  3. Set the boundary address to 14000h (this frees extended memory for Windows to run in standard mode).

  4. Remove the cache from the AUTOEXEC.BAT file because it conflicts with SMARTDRV.SYS.

  5. Remove EMM4J.SYS because it conflicts with HIMEM.SYS.

MORE INFORMATION

If you are still unable to get into standard mode, check for and remove the following terminate-and-stay-resident programs (TSRs) from the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

  • SHADOW.COM
  • RPAL.COM
  • BW.COM (the battery watch)
