Ok.. please see prior post of mine. but I am using regular vga 640/480 16 color
and I have also tried it w/o any networking software and I have gone as
far as taking out the netwokr card too.. 

Thanks for the idea.

This is usually indicicative of a network configuration, driver or card problem.
Try running with the /N option and see if it boots.

That behavior usually indicates an IRQ conflict of some kind.  Do you have
any other hardware installed besides the network card?  Also, are you
running the ASPI4DOS.SYS driver for the adaptec card?

Try installing the smartdrv double-buffering in DOS this has been
required for every SCSI machine I have worked on.  But don't rule out IRQ
base address or shared memory conflicts.  See the DOS manual for
installing smartdrv double-buffering.  Also look at the readme in
windows for more info on SCSI and windows.
