No I don't thankyou.  But I made a mistake in the original posting!

It really was: 
	SIMM Salesman: If your m/mboard can use 4Meg SIMMs it can use
	               3-chip SIMMs
	m/board guy:   Your m/board can't use 3-chip SIMMs
	m/board docs:  This m/board can use 4 Meg SIMMs (no mention of
	               3-chip or 9-chip).

So there's an inconsistency here.

People have been talking about the BIOS making a difference to the refresh,
but I would have thought it's the CHIPSET we should be looking at?  After
all that's what controls the refresh, caching etc.

I took the top 4 Megs of (3-chip) SIMMs out of my machine leaving only
9-chip ones in there and the crashes have stopped, from which I conclude
that either (a) My chipset doesn't like 3-chip SIMMs, or (b) there is
a fault in the m/board which shows up when both banks are populated.

I have a UMC chipset and the m/board is 386DX/40 with 64k cache, AMI BIOS
dated 12/12/91.  If anyone else has had similar problems I'd like to hear
about them.  We could draw up a list of m/boards and chipsets that
are compatible and incompatible with various bits and pieces.  Then we'd
have the beginnings of an FAQ.

     The Adaptec SCSI cards are as standard as SCSI gets on a PC.
You'll probably find more support for Adaptec cards than for any other
card.

     The problem is that the Adaptec card is a bus-mastering controller,
which can cause all sorts of problems with Windows, etc..

Roll a 6-10 foot extension card in a loop, about 1 foot diameter.
(anything from 8" or so ... a shape convenient to hold in the hand
and still maintain a loop).  Plug one end into the AC outlet.

Move the coil of wire around your screen in a circular pattern
(once is usually enough) but when you come to the end of your
circle, slowly draw the coil of wire away from the screen.

or simply pull out the plug from the outlet.

TV sets used to have a coil of wire around the tube and get activated
every time one turned the set on for a few seconds and automatically
disconnected from the AC source (internally).   On some sets you could
hear the thing.  

The above method is the way you use a "degaussing coil".  'Course 
you don't connect the other end of the extension cord.

I have a Orchid Prodesigner 2s-D ...and it currently does 32k

Hi netters, especially our American friends.

Sit up and take notice America, you're losing your touch.     :-)

I have been trying to buy some kit for my PC (2 3.5" 2.88 Mbyte floppy
drives, - one for me, one for a friend - and some other odds and ends).
Because 2.88 Mbyte floppies are not cheap here in Europe (what is?),
the usual rules apply; order from the US of A.

I looked up the 4 cheapest suppliers of a Teac drive I could find, in
Computer Shopper. Prices ranged between $80 and $90 (isn't it strange
how some dealers want to charge up to $150 for the same thing?).

That's where my problems started. Three of the suppliers will not ship to
Europe. The fourth supplier will, but will not take a credit card for
European orders. Whaaaaat? They'll take a money order. So I'm expected to
troll to the bank, get a bad exchange rate (credit card orders are changed
at a commercial rate), pay a commission, send a money order snail mail,
probably have to insure the post as well. These aren't all small back-street
outfits either, Midwest Micro is one of those unwilling to ship to Europe.

Don't misunderstand. I'm not suggesting an American would get better
service ordering from Europe. It's just that you guys are supposed to
rip arms off to get an order! Oh well, another myth bites the dust.

Having got that off my chest, the obvious question.

Where can I get a 2.88 Mbyte 3.5" floppy at or below $90, where they will
ship to Europe and will also take a credit card order? Above this price
it's almost not worth ordering from the USA, taking shipping charges into
account. I've gotta recoup my phone charges somehow!

BTW, I have had past successes with the USA, so it's not all bad. Thanks
in advance for any replies.

I was advised to play with the DIP switches of the card, but couldn't find

The MAG specs give a 72Hz vertical freq for hi resolutions but the ET4000

Is my monitor dead, or do I have to get a video board with 70Hz vertical freq

One thing to note for anybody who may be interested in buying this card is that
it will *not* work with OS/2 with that PROM revision, the latest PROM however
will make the controller work just fine with OS/2.  I have 2 IN2000 cards in a

The VESA standard as it applies to video cards is twofold: The VESA
software standard provides (through hardware BIOS calls or a loaded
driver) standardized access to SVGA modes (such as 800x600, 1024x768,
640x480x256, etc).  Diamond itself is a "voting member" on the VESA
committee, so at this point all of their boards comply in hardware (no
software driver necessary).  If you have an older one, you can get them
to send you a BIOS update that will make it unnecessary to run a
software driver to get VESA compatibility.  The VESA hardware standard
defines extensions to the video card that will be made in the future.
I'm not as knowledgable about the hardware end of things (as I don't
think that anyone has made use of it yet), but there is a "VESA
connector" on my 24x.

Hope this clears things up..

Where do you get 70K?  I just ran "mem /c" to see how much space
aspi4dos consumes on my system, and it's 6.8K.  Of course, my Adaptec
