I presently own a Tandy 1000TL(yes, I know, bad choice) which has a 286 but an
8-bit bus. As far as I can tell, the thing won't switch into protected mode.
I was running VMIX which would've put it in protected mode, but the thing locks
If I tell it to not to switch, it works fine. I also experienced the same
effects when running Windows 2.somethingoranother. Does anybody have any ideas
why? Is this a hardware problem? or software? or is my machince going nuts?
Any help would be GREAT!
