We had a Dell Workstation 400 (Dual PPro200) that had this problem. We had APM disabled along with all the funky stuff that Dell's might have. Recently that machine was replaced with a system with an all scsi drive. When we brought it back to the office to change to a MS SQL server for development, NT would not install on it because of "Hardware Problems". I have a feeling that problem is related to the machine having calcru messages in the log files. Maybe this is a hardware problem with other machines also? -=-------------------------------------------- - Daniel Harris - daniel@nettalklive.com - NetTalk Live!
