We are ! You probably have a problem with the ethernet card confliting with the specialix card. If you have a WD ethernet card or have installed the driver for one it will stomp on the 0xd000 memory segment which is the defualt address for the specialix card. You don;t specify what sort of system (mca,eisa, at) you are running so I can't tel you where to move the card to however if you contact specialix tech support (support@specialix.co.uk) they will be able to help. >-- > Ronald van der Pol -- John Pettitt, Specialix International, Email: jpp@specialix.com Tel +44 (0) 9323 54254 Fax +44 (0) 9323 52781 Disclaimer: Me, say that ?
