Timothy, Although I can't help you with regards to Amouse as I use a separate serial card and Microsoft Mouse I do have a question for you. Can you get Win 3.0 to operate in protected mode? Can you just type Win and have it run correctly or do you have to use the real /r mode? I've been unable to get it to run properly in the Protected mode, in that mode it can't access the floppy drives and it won't install and run ToolBook correctly. Any ideas. Oh yes, I'm also using a Pro Designer VGA Plus card for video and a WD 1007 card for hard drive control. I suppose they could have something to do with the problem. Just thought I'd ask and see what experiences you've had as I asked once before and had not one answer, must have had it in the wrong section! Keith

Yes, I am able to run Microsoft Windows 3.0 in standard mode on the A2286 Bridgeboard. I just type WIN and it boots up fine. I just haven't been able to get the AMOUSE driver to work. My hardware consists of a super VGA card with the Paradise chip set, a serial/parallel board, and the A2286 board. Maybe it's your hard drive controller giving you problems. Tim
