Question: is anyone running an Arnet smart board on a 386 here?  I got this
board on approval two weeks ago and, despite a couple of hours on-line with
Arnet engineers (who claim that the product works fine on every 386 of
their acquaintance), it consistently crashes when 'aspserv' is loaded and
one of two otherwise benign programs (work great with a Digiboard) is run.
Curiously, these same two programs, when compiled and run on a 286 with the
Arnet, purr.

Arnet seems to have thrown up their hands on this (they didn't write their
driver) so I'll be returning the board shortly unless someone has a clue.

The 386 machine here is a 20mHz Mini-Micro (System Micro 386) with a 10mHz
bus.
