I ran into a strange problem: When I left the 2090 in it's original slot (Zorro slot 1) and added the GVP to another free slot (Zorro slot 3) The system would not boot. The screen just cycled from light to dark grey. If I reverse the order of the modules, it seems to work fine. Anyone have an idea as to why this happens? Is it a known problem? I haven't called GVP or C= support yet. --- W. John Guineau guineau@wjg.enet.dec.com Digital Equipment Corporation Marlboro MA. 01752
