Eric, It's unlikely. For one, the same configuration and software worked on another brand of PC's. All I did was back it up to the network, pull the cards and move them into the ALR (ATI XL Wonder video card included) and download the files. One other card we're using is a Wang network card. I'm thinking it's a combination of the Wang, ALR and CD ROM.

I've run into those "funny" situations where a combination of cards just refused to work. Most recently I had a client who, based upon my recommendation, purchased an HP ScanJet IIp for scanning his documents. I spent over 2 hours trying to get it to work with his Zeos machine, but no luck. Finally I found out the HP scanner has a problem with 16 bit VGA boards. Okay, I'll switch the Diamond to 8bit mode…but it there was no way to switch it to an 8 bit mode! I ended up with egg on my face…luckily he had an ALR BusinessVEISA 486/25 that did accept and work with the HP ScanJet IIp. Eric
