- Do the new ET4000 drivers bundled with the SP require IOPL=YES? It would
- seem so from my experience. The system locks on load of PM if I change
- IOPL to no.
- This is the only oddity I've found with the full SP installation. My
- problems with lockup of dos and os2 windows may have been due to the fact
- that after first installing the SP, I continued using the Trident 16-bit
- driver. Maybe the hardware couldn't cope; but with an ET4000 card, the
- graphics fly.
- My system: 486/33, 8 meg, 120 meg IDE.
