Lines: 31 I have followed the recent thread on the problems with packet drivers from clarkson for the 3com 3c523 cards to no avail. I am still having problems getting this working. Let me explain what I have done. I have gen'd the proper shells for Novell Netware 2.15. These shells work fine, I can login to the server and run applications. I have ftp'd the 3c523 packet drivers from Clarkson (vers 7). I load the Novell shell then the packet driver and login to the network. I then attempt to run a FTP product and it fails. With version 7 of the packet driver I get a Initialization failed..timeout error, which was discussed in the recent thread, I then attempted the same thing with one change, I load a Clarkson packet driver version 5, then TERMINate it and then load the packet driver version 7. This too fails when I attempt to run a FTP product. But this time I do not get the initialization failed error instead the computer locks-up and the screen flashes all different colors and characters. Has anyone else come across these problems? I am hoping someone can give me some new information as to what I am doing wrong.
