1. I have seen some problems posted to this group in which
conflicts exist between the 3comboard and VGA boards. One posting
refered to Shrared I/O address and an other mentioned interrupt
vectors...

2. In the SCO documentation certain VGA boards are mentioned ..
one of which is the Orchid VGA card that is mentioned to conflict
with both the WD8003E and the 3COM503 boards.

3. The real soulution is for SCO to support more ethernet cards
as that this shared I/O  memory addressing problem can be
resolved.
