The last debug output shows a probe retuning a device not found error. I tried using the color reverse function on the laptop, but to no avail. This is a NCR 3150 486 with 4megs of Ram. Any ideas ? I'd like to turn off the color (maybe it is trying to use colors in text mode that don't display correctly ?) or something else with the screen. Thanks Brian
