Hi,

	I too just had this problem but it was a SCSI card that caused the
problem. I don't know what card you are actually working, I am using a 
Trident 1Mb VGA card. Puting the DIP switch 5 to on solved my problem.
I would advice you to check that your jumpers on the number of DRAM chips
you have must be set correctly. Switch 5 changes from fast address decode
(off - default) to slow address decode (on - must for SCSI,RLL and some
others). You may have to change a jumper (can't remember which) which says 
that it uses standard bus and not autodetect bus.

	Well, I hope this helps.

Michael
