A few days later I know better... oh well. Actually doesn't this part have some 8bit backward compatibility mode? I vaguely recall something like this from reading the datasheets. My brother has a Deskpro XL, but the pcscp driver didn't exactly work last time he tested it. It looks like the driver was changed in January, so it may work better now. I'd suggest trying one of the 1.4alpha snapshot boot floppies, and see what happens. -Andrew -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Gillham | This space left blank gillham@whirlpool.com | inadvertently.
