When you reboot the machine do you do a warm or cold boot?
I have to hit the reset button and NOT do an alt+clt+del to get the
vaspi.sys
to load. Why this happens, I don't know and I have tried everything I
can 
think of.  It is a minor inconvenience, but since I don't turn the
machine
off unless it is necessary it does not bother me to much.

David, you may want to try the scsiscan from danmar systems.  Check out 
the HP www page for this option. I was able to have them send me the 
drivers online and the disks later.  It is an os/2 driver that works well 
for me on the 4p... but you do have to buy it.  Compared to the 4p price 
it wasn't significant extra $$'s.

Have a look at http://home.sn.no/~bthoem/hpsjfaq.html

With the HP Card, you will need to purchase the HPSCAN-drivers from Danmar.
