The system is set up to run in Smart mode. While in Windows, when the system is busy doing some (maybe) disk read/write and the hourglass wait icon is on the screen, if I move the mouse the system inevitably crashes. This presumably timing/interrupt problem disappears if the system is set up for the Slow mode. Has any other Z286-LP user encountered this problem? Any suggestions/diagnosis? Thanks in advance. --Ambrish Mathur mathur@alberta.uucp
