Has anyone had any experience with Dell systems? I just got a Dell System 325, the 25MHz '386 machine. My IBM PC Token Ring card seems to work, but my wd8003 and Proteon p1344 cards don't. Also, a 3com 3c501 card seems to work in the 16MHz machine we have here. Has anyone gotten these to work? Drew p.s. The ibmtr card gets 1.33Mb/sec with FTP using the FTP Software kernel. Yow...

Thanks to Doug McCallum <dougm@ico.ISC.COM>, my wd8003 card is now working wonderfully in my Dell System 325. The problem was the Video-7 ROM at c000:0 was colliding with the default wd8003 location at c400:0. Putting the wd8003 at d000:0 makes it work quite well... Drew

Drew,
Has anyone had any experience with Dell systems? I just got a Dell
System 325, the 25MHz '386 machine. My IBM PC Token Ring card seems
to work, but my wd8003 and Proteon p1344 cards don't. Also, a 3com
3c501 card seems to work in the 16MHz machine we have here. Has
anyone gotten these to work?
Proteon is in the process of doing a board (will be p1345) that fixes the
problems with many of the clones. That particular one is not on my list
but other fast Dell ones are and thus I expect that one will work. Contact
me on this.
