The problem came back. 

I  put  the  Oak card back in, and after  2  hours,  Windows  for 
Workgroups had crashed. Looking at the had disk, several files in 
the WINDOWS directory had been corrupted e.g.

PROTOCOL.INI  ---> PRO\OCOL.INI

And some other directories too. This happened the first time too.

I put a COMPAQ 386/20s 256K VGA card in its place and am  leaving 
that   running  PC  TOOLS  diagnostics  on  the  CPU,  RAM,   and 
Motherboard..

Anyone seen this before?
