Max, I haven't heard anything specific with any of the equipment you listed. If other forum members have the smae stuff, hopefully they will jump in. You mentioned you tried a "clean boot". I just wanted to double check what you meant by that. When we say a clean boot, we mean CONFIG.SYS has FILES and BUFFERS statements only, and AUTOEXEC.BAT has MOUSE statement only. (Don't even use the MOUSE if you are testing command line rendering.) If you are in that FILES/BUFFERS configuration, and it still hangs, then you can be pretty sure it is hardware that is causing the problem. If that is the case, the key things to perform diagnostics on are the RAM, Hard disk controller card, and Hard disk. -Brian
