SYMPTOMS
You may receive the following error message when you run Setup from
Data Expert's original equipment manufacturer (OEM) version of
Microsoft Windows 3.1:
Error: W311US
System failed!
CAUSE
As an OEM, Data Expert has exercised its right to change the method in
which the Microsoft Windows setup program functions. Data Expert has
changed the functionality of the setup program so that its OEM version
of Windows looks specifically for the specific Data Expert computer
BIOS signature. If its BIOS is not found, Data Expert Windows refuses
to install.
NOTE: If you run Setup from Data Expert Windows Setup Disk 1 on a
system that uses a Data Expert motherboard, you should not receive the
error mentioned above.
