Just don't forget to download & install the latest iSeries Access service 
pack from www.ibm.com/iseries/access after installing from the CD.  :-)

Yes, you have to get it by calling Microsoft Support.  The easier way was 
to take the V5R3 and upgrade the PC to iSeries Access V5R3, when IBM (as 
usual) has managed to code around Microsloth's bugs - so you don't need 
that fix if you install V5R3 on the PC.

There's a fix for that SP4 issue.  If you're still interested you can try 
the archives.

Require, NO.  But IF you have machine ordered for Ops console & change 
your mind, or it doesn't work, unlike V5R2 and earlier it WON'T just 
accept a twinax screen and transfer.  We wasted 8 hours because the system 

had Ops Console Specified and customer wanted Twinax, their PC was W98 and 

wouldn't work, my laptop was Win2000 with SP4 which has a problem, and a 
series of other events (like 60,000 SPAM emails at our companies server) 
delayed things a bit more.  :-)

Does an i5 _require_ something other than a twinax console?  If so, what 
are the benefits?  Looks like I have more reading to do . . .
