Like you I have an Osborne Computer (486DX2-66). I understand that the ATI mach64 used by Osborne is a customised OEM version, and that is perhaps why the device drivers for the ATI mach64 on the OS2 Warp CD-ROM fail to install. If so, the additional 1 meg may not help. If you have been able to overcome the problem since posting your message I would appreciate your letting me know how. Regards H Alexander
