SUMMARY
=======
The NEC Prospeed 386 Laptop may stop responding (hang) during Microsoft Windows
setup if a math coprocessor is installed and the jumper to the left of the math
coprocessor is set incorrectly.
The jumper has three pins. The default settings are pins 2 and 3. Windows
requires that the jumper be set to pins 1 and 2. This has been confirmed by NEC
technical support.
NEC Prospeed users should contact NEC technical support or their dealer for
correct installation instructions.
