You don't list the hardware details at all, so al I can tell you is that if you don't see your SCSI controller listed in the hardware docs then it's not supported. The video card should also be matched against what you see in the hardware guide. >(2) What about FreeBSD running with the 70ns SIMMs on this machine? This is not a FreeBSD issue, this is a hardware issue. If you are running a 133Mhz clock then you need 60ns SIMMS for *anything* you might run on this machine, be it DOS or FreeBSD. Jordan
