Hi again- just for the record, Ned appears to have found my problem... dev
support does try to communictate w/non-existent hardware, and leaves PACT
set when it fails.  Has anyone else had to deal with this situation before?

thanks,
Mike


----------

Yes, it will ignore the hardware as long as the device support "cooperates".
Leaving PACT true was someone's brainstorm a long time ago which has
turned out to be incompatible with other features like SIMM. 

A simple mod to the device support to find another way to ignore 
non-existent hardware is all it would take ...
