New UIDE Available (Announce)

posted by rr , Berlin, Germany, 28.04.2009, 09:56

Today I've received this e-mail from Jack R. Ellis:

The new 2-GB "small memory" UIDE has been announced on EDR-DOS and has been posted, along with XMGR and their sources, at Johnson Lam's site: http://johnson.tmfc.net/

Home page & download: http://johnson.tmfc.net/dos/driver.html

Changes:
25-Apr-09 XMGR/UIDE license and FreeDOS prohibition deleted, drivers and sources are again available to all. Corrected UIDE error in posting CD/DVD "return codes". UIDE /R switch re-added to support ROM-DOS. 21-Apr-09 Minor UIDE error (disk "A20 error" code not set) is fixed. 17-Apr-09 UIDE now caches 2 GIGABYTES, using 1056 upper-memory bytes and 3760 HMA bytes for any cache size; search tables now use XMS! /L deleted. Fixed BAD audio byte-count error. 2-Jan-09 UIDE problem handling CD/DVD read errors has been fixed. 29-Dec-08 UIDE can now cache up to 1.8 GIGABYTES of data! Loading scheme and "MvData" XMS subroutine improved. Fixed an "I-O busy" error during CD/DVD reads. 16-Jan-08 UIDE again allows up to 511-MB caches, using HMA space for most systems, upper-memory for > 255-MB on V7.10 MS-DOS. 14-Dec-07 UIDE /R switch and "big" caches deleted.
