AST-BSC / COMPAQ PORTABLE
|
|
|
|
|
|
Problem:
|
|
|
|
When customers have attempted to use our AST-BSC Version 1.4 on a
|
|
COMPAQ Portable and the DEL key is used, they have encountered
|
|
the following error conditions:
|
|
|
|
1) The cursor is positioned in front of the data
|
|
to be deleted. When the DEL key is pressed,
|
|
no action appears to take place. If the ENTER
|
|
key is pressed, the screen re-appears but the
|
|
data which was intended to be deleted by the
|
|
DEL key no longer exists.
|
|
|
|
2) The cursor is positioned in front of the data
|
|
to be deleted. When the DEL key is pressed
|
|
numerous times (customer is attempting to
|
|
delete multiple characters in a word), the
|
|
screen begins to scroll upward one line at a
|
|
time for each DEL key pressed, instead of
|
|
deleting the data. The status line also
|
|
scrolls.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Solution:
|
|
|
|
The problem has been duplicated by AST. To solve this problem,
|
|
the customer must contact COMPAQ Customer Service and request the
|
|
Revision G PROM Upgrade Kit.
