I've had the same results after upgrading my Model 150 to V4R4, except I've
been dealing with this since mid-July -- 4 months!!

I was working with the support staff of the business partner who sold me the
AS/400 and V4R4 upgrade on this problem.  After spending 10 minutes trying
to convince the clueless tech that is WAS possible to have a PC console and
that it worked fine for me under V4R1, hi quickly conferenced in IBM.  I
emailed them some log files, and after nearly a two week wait, the business
partner contacted me and told me that I would have to do a scratch install
of Windows 95 on the PC before they would work with me any further.  I
explained that I had already tried Operations Console with a Win95 and Win98
PC with the same results as you described in your previous message.  As a
result, I gave up on support and have been experimenting with this on my own
as time allows.  Fortunately, this is a development machine because I've
been gambling without a console for 4 months.
