SUMMARY
The IDEA5251/PC Twinax adapter that ships with the IDEAcomm 5250 emulation package only works with Windows 95 and Windows for Workgroups. It will not function under Windows NT.



MORE INFORMATION
Because this Twinax adapter requires that a certain block of memory be reserved it will not function under Windows NT. Under Windows for Workgroups and Windows 95 this can be done using the "EXCLUDE" function of EMM386. There are no versions of this card that will work with Windows NT.

IDEA is currently working on a version of the card and driver that will function with NT.
