On certain installations of a Novell network, the network may cause the Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) to hang. This problem may also occur in CodeView or QuickC. The hang usually occurs when an attempt is made to use the mouse.

If you have a peripheral (such as a mouse) that uses Interrupt Request Level (IRQ) 3, and your system is part of a network using Novell NetWare version 2.15 or earlier, your system may hang when you load QuickC, PWB, or CodeView. As a temporary solution, set your peripheral to use another interrupt. For more information, contact your Novell NetWare dealer.

If taking these steps does not solve the problem, please contact Microsoft Product Support Services.
