JC> The riser card came from Russia (thought that was cool). JC> Got the case from ebay too its a PS/Value case (so I can use a normal flopp I can't remember if you wrote back if you were able to load a lot of that DOS stuff into high-memory or EMS... as in, allocate some EMS pages with EMM386 and SET DBOVREMS=Y. JC> Also: pretty sure the 486-40 would have a tough time with windows. 3.0 mig JC> work but thats not even a real multitasker. Windows 3.1 or 3.11 for Workgroups (I forget)... should be better than 3.0. Windows NT 3.5 or 4.0 should run in 8 megs of memory...
