This file contains release notes for SafeGard v1.2 on changes made after the manual was printed. -------------------------------------------------------- Maintenance Release v1.2 ------------------------ V1.2 corrects a DOS buffers - cache coherency fault. This fault manifests itself on single diskette backups were the target diskette has been accessed by DOS prior to backup. The result is diskette FAT corruption which is variable in severity depending on the sectors DOS had buffered prior to backup. Testing has been done on the following OS's PC-DOS 3.30 MS-DOS 4.01 MS-DOS 5.0 MS-DOS 6.2 OS/2 2.1 Windows 3.0 Windows 3.1 Windows for Workgroups 3.11 Windows NT 3.1 -------------------------------------------------------- Users experiencing snow problems on CGA monitors should start SafeGard once using the undocumented /cga command line parameter to correct the problem. You will notice a reduction in screen refresh rates as a result of this operation. Note: /ega removes the effects of /cga Performance Improvements ------------------------- Performance Improvements may be obtained by configuring your system with a RAMDRIVE and the changing the TEMP file path to point to the RAMDRIVE within the dialog.
