Is anyone out there running 386^max on a 386 with an Adaptec 1542B
SCSI controller? Has anyone else had problems with this combination?

I am running a 25MHz 386 clone, C&T chipset. As soon as I try to
open high memory to load tsr's with 386^max, tha system halts with
a "bad or missing command.com" and "system halted: cannot load COMMAND"
message. If anyone has come across this problem, please let me know.

(All works fine with a RLL controller).

Thanks,
-Stephen
