Understanding the status line
The status line at the bottom of the control panel gives you messages about
the status of the PC hardware and software. Messages can include any of the
following:
m
DOS-compatibility card not present Your computer’s system software did not
recognize the DOS-compatibility card installed in your computer. Reinstall
the PC software according to the directions in Chapter 8.
If reinstalling the software doesn’t help, contact an Apple-authorized
service provider for assistance, or call Apple’s customer support hotline.
(The phone number for the hotline is in the service and support
information that came with your computer.)

and the DOS environment won’t run.

of RAM installed, and the PC environment requires at least 2 MB of free
RAM if you don’t have a memory module installed on the DOS-
compatibility card for the exclusive use of the PC. Turn off the RAM disk
(if you’re using one) in the Memory control panel, and restart your
Macintosh.
