We are experiencing random lockups of the 95 workstations. Each PC uses Norton Antivirus and have disabled the scan on open. I have ran regclean and did "clean/fix" the registry which did appear to help, but we have several HP VE 5/75s that still freeze or loose the novell drive mappings each time the program is exited. We are loading the TSR with the /p option. Any suggestions? ---- === At 05 FEB 1998 07:29AM Steve Smith wrote: === This is a wild guess, but I had a Novell server this week where the same symptoms occured - gradual loss of network drive mappings as traffic was exerted to each network drive letter in turn. It turned out to be a faulty network card. Try swap the HP netwrk cards and see if their problem persists. Steve ---- === At 05 FEB 1998 02:31PM Doug Cox wrote: === Steve: Thanks for the reply. Did you have to tweak any of the settings on the computers to resolve this? We have seen that it only appears on the HP Vectra Pentium 75s (HP VE5/75) and not on any of the later Vectra VLs. -Doug ---- === At 08 FEB 1998 01:04AM Steve Smith wrote: === The fault was purely hardware. It also occured to me that you should check the Bios settings for re-mapped ROM addresses. Perhaps there is a clash between your network shell and (a) on-motherboard video, or something operating between 640 kB and 1 Mb addresses. Again - pure guesses - Novell keeps a list of drives active internal to the network shell. If this loads high you may have to exclude some RAM areas used by your memory manager to avoid the video array. Ensure the video driver is correct, or else disable any motherboard based video, and install a cheap S3 based card and use the standard S3 drivers, if possible. Compaq and HP often fall into the "difficult configuration" class, owing to their propietary and often non-standard (quirky) implementation.

The "popular" application switches, onlyl the /p is really required. -Doug [[https://www.revelation.com/revweb/oecgi4p.php/O4W_HANDOFF?DESTN=O4W_RUN_FORM&INQID=NONWORKS_READ&SUMMARY=1&KEY=9DB124CDC6861396852565A100592080|View this thread on the forum...]]
