137Chapter D - Using Microsoft MS-DOSBIOS located at 0x00E0000 - 0x00E1FFFIn this example, the GDT BIOS occupies E000:0000 to E000:1FFF (E000 is the segment a d-dress).DPMEM at 0x000D0000 - 0x000D3FFFHere the DPMEM starts at D000:0000 and ends at D000:3FFF (D000 is the segment a d-dress).You may also use other utility programs such as Georg Schnurerís (cít magazine) CTPCI pro-gram in order to obtain the requested address locations. On this occasion we would like tothank Mr. Georg Schnurer and the cít magazine for allowing us to put this very helpful utilityon our system disks.Example 1: The Microsoft EMM386.EXE Manager is used. The GDT driver GDTX000.EXE hasnot been loaded from the CONFIG.SYS:DEVICE=EMM386.EXE X=D000-D3FF X=E000-E1FFExample 2: The Microsoft EMM386.EXE Manager is used. The GDT driver GDTX000.EXE hasbeen loaded from the CONFIG.SYS:DEVICE=EMM386.EXE X=D000-D3FF(Note: You may have to add the path for "EMM386.EXE". Other parameters may follow theexcluded areas).D.5 Using Windows 3.xIn order to be able to install Windows 3.x a fully operational MS-DOS operating system hasto be present on the chosen partition. Furthermore, the first entry in the CONFIG.SYS filebehind the HIMEM.SYS line has to be:DEVICE=GDTX000.EXE(if necessary, add the correct path name after the "=" symbol and before GDTX000.EXE).(A) Now install Windows according to the instructions given in the Windows manual. Ge n-erally, you start with Disk 1 - Setup from which you load the setup program. This Setup pro-gram guides you through the entire installation and prompts you to insert further floppydisks.(B) After the installation is completed, the Setup program will ask you if you want to resetthe system. This reset must be performed.(C) If you change to the directory WINDOWS after the reset and type in WIN,Windows will be loaded. Although thanks to its high computing power the GDT controller isjust right for disk intensive operating systems such as Windows, it will not show its full c a-pacity yet. The reason for this is that the "communication" between Windows and the GDTcontroller is not yet carried out by GDTX000.EXE, but by Windows' SMARTDRIVE driver.(D) The steps in this section aim at removing SMARTDRV from the CONFIG.SYS and AUTO-EXEC.BAT files, and at adding a few entries to the Windows initialization file SYSTEM.INI.
