Ok this took some time to getting back to any way.  But I saw someone
else just posting along the same lines so I thort I'd better get around
to replying :O.
I tried to run the OD network drivers  however Win 95 had a fit and
pretty much crashed.  Is it necessary to remove the win 95 network
support first?

A second Point is I recently noticed that I was loosing massive amounts
of ram to "DOS" when viewing mem/a under OD7.02 somewhere in the
vicinity of 230k.  Is this normal ? after loading network drivers etc
etc. I end up with about 450k left to run programs so I've taken to
running the network under msdos 7 (ERK) but at least I CAN run programs.
Any help would be gladly appreciated!!

Machine Spec's
Pentium 200mmx, 486 dx2 66
RAM 32mb,20mb respectively
OD 7.02
EMM386 (Standard Parameters)
DPMI
Network drivers
LSL
3c503 (3com etherlink II 8 bit driver)
etherlink 802.3 frame
ipxodi driver
VLM

Email me if this is not enough and I'll try to dig out any other spec's
which may help..
Cheers

Thanx
