Michael,
the only unusual thing that I can see here
is your IDE tape drive. Try to REM those
drivers in the CONFIG.SYS that you don't need
(eg. the SCSI driver stuff). If that doesn't help,
disable busmastering on the IDE driver. If this
doesn't help, you might want to remove the streamer
for installation of Warp 4. You can still reinstall
it afterwards.

You mean you turned off hardware _de_tection? I don't
know how you do it, but I would expect you would then 
need to select the drivers manually (ie. disable all 
unneeded drivers?!)

Maybe you should try another mouse...

Manfred
