I had the same (or very similar problem) with our DX4/100. The computer hang completely after 'Reboot'-word (even cursor stopped blinking!). This was found both under OS/2 Warp and FreeBSD 2.0.5. And I always had to apply 'Cold Reset' (alas, not very good for remote reboot :-) SOLUTION: ^^^^^^^^ was found in MotherBoard Man (where different jumpers were described). MB thought that it works with DX not DX4. After the change the Computer reboots fine. Hope this helps. Regards, Maksim. --- Maksim N.
