I am having a problem trying to install a packet driver on an old
Olivettin M24.  When I run the installation program, it says it is
installing driver at address 0AFC (this is if dmdrivr.sys is loaded)
or at address 093F, if it isnt.  In either case the machine hangs
(in a big way).  I can run the exact same program on another machine
(386 clone) with no problems, so obviously there is something not quite
right with the M24 (this also prevents me from running non Olivetti
DOS).  What I want to know is if there is anything I can do to make this
machine work. Surely other people must have tried to install packet
drivers on these things before.

Thanks...
