Hi there, it's been a while since I've read this group, so:

I'm having trouble getting NetWare and enhanced mode  at the same time.

Our system has been upgraded to NetWare 386, so I'm pretty sure ipx, net3 etc
are all up to date.

When I  run ipx, net3, win -3 
	I get enhanced mode but I can't get to the net.
When I run ipx, net3, netbios, win -3 
	Windows starts, but then drops back into dos, leaving me in graphics mode.

Enhanced mode is fine without the net.

I have tried some of the manual's suggestions to allocate more memory
for DMA and net stuff,
but it didn't work. So far I have not tried using EMMExclude (I'll try
it Monday). I *think*
excluding some memory between E0000 and F0000 may help. There is 128k of
shadow ram. It gets
marked read only by the bios after the bios is copied in. I am not sure
where the shadow ram
is. Any ideas? It may be overlapping the ROMs but who knows!


I have:
	NetWare 386

	an AST 386SX/16. It has a weird bios. It uses shadow ram, which screwed
up standard
	and real mode until I fixed it with a  HIMEM.SYS switch telling it not
to disable
	shadow ram.

	VGA Wonder+ card

	NE2000 (Novell) EtherNet card

	Nothing weird (as far as I can see) in config.sys or autoexec.bat (no
QEMM)
	As far as I know, the System Administrator has set up SHELL.CFG
properly.
	
	Basically, everything's pretty plain.


Any general (or otherwise) about NetWare would be appreciated. Have I
missed some upgrades?
does Windows 3.0a patch something for Novell? 


Thanks bunches,
John Paul Morrison
