The suggestion is that you do the following:

1) Disable *all* high memory (>640K && <1M).  This will force
CDOS to not use or load anything into that region. 

2) Reboot and reload Novell via the NETWARE command (check your
manual for the actual name). 

If this works, then they say that your card is "memory addressed",
and when you have this memory enabled for Concurrent's use, the
netware driver will stomp all over the OS.

The general tech support concensus is that your Novell cards
should be IO addressed, and NOT memory addressed.  If you have a
memory addressed card, you will need to disable the memory used
by the card so that CDOS will not load itself there.
