RE: Decision Data ES/PCI Twinax card and Windows 98SE

["Shields, Ken" <kenshields@xxxxxxx>]

Many of the older Decision data, Ideacomm emulation cards made wide use of 
assigning fixed IRQ's.
This problem disappeared with the P&P versions, which were not hardware 
dependent.
Found the older cards gave big problems with W95 and up....
Could this be the problem?

No - it's a small shop with an AS/400 model 200.  Twinax directly attached
to WSC block on 400.

Hello Neil,
is this card connected directly to the AS/400 twinax controller or through
any other means ? Is this perhaps the problem with the new models of
twinax-controllers running 2 Mbit "double mode" instead of the old speed
(1 MBit). (You know, where  the data area has to be filled to reduce
the speed of the twinax-controllers to the old standards ...)

Regards from Germany, Philipp Rusch
