2653.0. "DecServers and DECwindows" by UTRTSC::CAHILL () Wed Apr 25 1990 09:09

I have a customer with the following problem with
DECwindows VMS5.3 on a 3100

The customer can startup DECwindows OK and use it without 
any problem,if however he loads a DECsever 200 his 
DECwindows stuff crashes.The system still works OK,he can
login via another terminal without a problem.
If he reboots his 3100 everthing works OK,the problem
is only when he does an online load of the DECserver
and it only affects DECwindows.

Any ideas...

Thanks..

GC. (my second note today !)

	Do you mean he gets the operator window up at the top of the screen with the OPCOM message saying the server has been loaded? If so then just hit CONTROL F2. mike

	When he asks you why the arrow keys stopped working in the terminal windows, you can tell him it's because he hit ctrl-F3 by accident, and another ctrl-F3 will toggle back to normal...
