I received mail and have seen postings from each of these people:
. cpcahil at virtech.uucp (Conor P. Cahill)
. rick at pcrat.uucp (Rick Richardson)
. Dick Dunn <watmath!ico.isc.com!rcd>
. Preston Gurd <watmath!watcgl.waterloo.edu!rpgurd>
They all suggested that the problem is probably related to the old
infamous 386/387 incompability.
And they are correct. I swapped the double sigma 386 out of the
machine with the 387 and put in a 386DX chip. Pic now seems to work
like a charm.
Thanks.
