I agree, but a friend was looking at the cdrom (for the drivers that REQUIRE win3.1 to install).. and the docs say it was supported.. but nothing in the pdf of the cs4237b that I read says anything of the sb16 emulation... the actual chip is cx4237 though... also, I agree.. WSS is the best mode to run it in.. :) lets me use vat flawlessly.. ttyl.. -- John-Mark Gurney Modem/FAX: +1 541 683 6954 Cu Networking Live in Peace, destroy Micro$oft, support free software, run FreeBSD
