Hi Jack, Sorry to say I don't have a solution as I have neither. Just a straight PAR. One interesting thing I ran across that may help you track down some unresolved problems is Win 95 on my system allocates an IRQ and host drive for an IDE/ESDI standard controller. This is on a Neptune P90. I thought about that for quite awhile before I realised it had to be the PAR drive that it was logging in. Caused problems with my network endlessly. Other than that I don't know what to tell you. The full screen PAR interface works fine. The PARVCR seems to work o.k. except that I don't know about storing ANI files as it doesn't seem to want to store them to the Master drive. The other oddity I've noticed is that Explorer registers both the Root C: and the Master drive of the PAR with the same directories. In the PAR interface this is not a problem but its kinda odd in Explorer. Theoretically you should be able to click on an ANI file and have the PAR interface come up ready to play. Maybe in the next revision. Alex
