I also have an Adaptec 2372B RLL controller. If I want to boot my 286 at 12MHz, I have to have the VGA card in 8 bit mode. I do this by putting it in an 8 bit slot. It seems to fail during the VGA BIOS init. I used to fiddle it by booting at 6 MHz, but I kept on forgetting to switch up to 12MHZ :-) Lloyd -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lloyd Parkes | Bix Licks Stick's Tricks lloyd@comp.vuw.ac.nz | Bix Barton Master of the Rum and Uncanny ------------------------------------------------------------------------
