> I don't think your theory about EMM386.SYS holds water, Sorry, Marion, But your information as it pertains to my system is 'all wet!' <g,d,&r> Fortunately, I'm on high enough ground to escape the recent flooding from all the bad weather. The 386 bridgeboard (BB) replaced an XT BB. This particular hardcard ran just fine with the XT BB! It is a Hardcard 40. Now the manual Quantum sent me does mention a Hardcard 10 and a Hardcard 20. Your information is probably about one or both of those earlier models. The EMM386.SYS does cut off access to the hardcard files. Novell Tech Support has assigned a open incident number to the problem for me. None, either, or both of HIDOS.SYS and/or Janus EMM.SYS do work with the 386 BB. HIDOS.SYS parameters have /CHIPSET=NONE and /BDOS=NONE. Tim (Novell Tech Support) and I are hoping that the Novell 7 EMM386.SYS driver will work. Once I locate the MSDOS 5.0 diskettes that came with the 386 BB, I shall try that manager at Tim's suggestion.
