Question:
When I run my console application or execute a DOS box, I
sometimes get an undocumented message "Parameter value not
in allowed range" that displays in the window. The message
seems to be posted before the first line of code is run
since it is there even when I use "trace into" to start
the program. How can I get around this?
Answer:
On some Win95 OSR2 systems, there is an invalid value
contained in the "Initial Environment" setting in the
_DEFAULT.PIF, and CONAGENT.PIF file that Windows uses for
dos box defaults. Opening the properties dialog for these
files, and making a change to the "Initial Environment"
setting (located on the Memory tab) seems to correct the
problem.
