Write your reply.

assistant: With the Dos/Win Client32, I had dramatically faster response time on some
accounting reports, on the order of 5x faster than VLM. I suspect that
caching was involved, because it was a single user in the accounting system
at the time. With this same client (not the W95 client) memory requirements
are substantially higher, on the order of about 4MB. 8MB machines with
Client32 are unbearable, so SOP has been to upgrade RAM to 16MB minimum with
Client32.

From: "Humzah Khaial" <hkhaial@idirect.n0spam.com>
Greetings,
I am attempting to upgrade my Compaq Prosignia to a Compaq Proliant 1200,
however, the system locks up (usually followed but a screen scramble) when
attempting to launch NBI31X.NLM (Netware Bus Interface).  I have tried
applying the upto date patches (312PTD, LIB312A, ODI313), upgraded all that
can be upgraded on Compaq's side (System Config, Options, etc); all lead to
the same deadend road.  The same sequence of NLMs loads perfectly fine on
the Prosignia.  Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
I am guessing this has something to do with the introduction of PCI to the
mix.
Thanks in advance,
HumZ

You must have the gateway software installed from the CD before you

The gateway should be able to use the ISDN router just as any other
