I had trouble installing Nota Bene on two machines in the office that had an ATI EGA Wonder card in it. I was installing the Special Language Supplement and wasn't getting the correct characters on screen when I switched to say Greek. I had assumed that I had done something wrong during the install but recently heard from someone that there were problems with Nota Bene and the ATI card. Any body else had this experience? tj

It doesn't work well with mice, and a program called TurboCAD won't run on it either. Steer away from it if you are looking for complete compatibility.

It doesn't work well I have experienced problems using the EGA Wonder card with Windows/386. Sometimes screens would come up black or, worse, in Japanese! After several months of complaint calls to ATI, they sent me a modified Windows *executable* that resolved most of the problems, at least until Microsoft updates Windows. In short, this ATI product is definitely not "technology" I would "trust"! -- Scott
