[comp.sys.ibm.pc.rt] PC-Coprocessor under 2.2.1

Hi,

   Some time ago we purchased the PC Coprocessor services. I have never
been able to get this thing to boot. I have tried DOS 3.0,3.1,3.2, and 3.3
all of which hang the system.

   I have a megapel, configured with the CGA dipswitch on. The main menu
never asks for a monitor type. I did put a real CGA card in the system
and switch the DIP off, but the same problem exists.

   Has anyone ever used the coprocessor services? I bought the card in
December with the rest of the system. IBM tells me it's no longer supported,
so they can't help me. 

   Also, the Doc set says that 3.2 is required. The Simulator requires 3.3.
I know they two can share a filesystem, but (if it ever does boot) can the
coprocessor run 3.3?

Thanks
Peter
