Hello --
Thanks to those who responded to my problem with my floppy
disk drives. You were right: I needed to move my VGA card to an
8-bit slot.
Paul Zola at SCO responded and said that he knew of no problems
with the Paradise card, so let me correct him. I am using a Paradise
1024 card and had to move it to an 8-bit slot. Setting the DIP switch
to force using an 8-bit BIOS is *NOT* enough. Fortunately, I do not
seem to be experiencing any speed problems when I run even 800x600
graphics applications. Perhaps this tidbit could be stashed in SCO's
repository of wisdom.
Thanks again,
John
