Using TinyTERM 3.3 with IBM3151 emulation, the numeric keypad may fail. When that happens, copy and paste the following to the end of your .tap file:

You may see sporadic Winsock errors in TinyTERM when connecting to an Ishare modem server. This happens when the Ishare modem server conflicts with the TCP/IP settings for the local network. You will need to redirect Ishare to look at the modem server only, and redirect the local network to look at the network configuration only. This may require a hosts file on the PC.

Occasionally TinyTERM 3.3 will not save a change to the IP address or phone number it’s using. When that happens, open the .tap file in Notepad or another text editor. Make the change there, then save the file. It will be in effect the next time you start TinyTERM.

The full error message is, “This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. TN3232 caused an invalid page fault in Winfws32.dll.” To get rid of this error, uncheck the “Enable Extended Attributes” setting in the Attributes tab of the Preferences.

Using TinyTERM 3.2 on Windows 3.1, Netscape will not load pages if the Marathon Winsock.dll is in place. However, using Netscape’s Winsock.dll causes TinyTERM to dial the modem, rather than connecting to an ISP.

To bypass this, use the Century Internet Dialer to connect to the ISP before starting Netscape or TinyTERM. This will allow the use of Netscape’s Winsock.dll, while TinyTERM will still recognize the ISP connection.

TinyTERM Plus 3.2 comes with a Marathon TCP/IP stack for Windows 3.1. If you want to install without it, edit the PC’s AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files.

In the AUTOEXEC.BAT, REM out everything except ECHO, PROMPT and PATH commands. In the CONFIG.SYS, REM out everything except FILES, BUFFER, HIMEM.SYS and EMM386.EXE.

Restart your PC after this. When you install TinyTERM, you will be able to bypass the Marathon portion.

This error comes up when installing TinyTERM 3.2 on Windows 3.1. It’s caused by one of two things:

1. Multiple Winsocks are installed on the PC. Remove them and reinstall only one.
2. No Winsock is installed on the PC. Install one before installing TinyTERM.

Installing TinyTERM on Windows 3.1, it may ask for an IP address, even if you plan a serial connection. When this happens, click the Back button and deselect the network installation.

Error 502 means that TinyTERM has no network driver selected. To select a network driver, do the following:

1. Open the ICONect or .tap file.
2. Go to the Configure menu and select Communications.
3. Select Network Login for the port.
4. Click the Network button and choose Generic Winsock as the network type.

Using TinyTERM 3.3 and PCTERM emulation on Windows 3.1, some keys give extra characters, such as:

pressing a key gives ad
x gives xx
l gives l_

To fix this, change the primary code page to “STD 437 MS-DOS Latin US.”
