I am looking for an EMS driver that is compatible with Microsoft Windows
V3.0 that is based on the chips 'n technology chipset running under
a *286* processor.

The current EMS driver that I do use is  called Turbo EMS V1.0 but is not
recognized by SMARTDRV.sys or RAMDRIVE.SYS (with the /a option set).

Norton SI acknowledges that there is a EMS driver installed  (at the proper
EMS frame address) and acknowledges the correct size.

Turbo EMS V1.0 (purchased in '87) fails some of the EMS tests that I
have recently received so I am looking for a new EMS driver. I do not
have the documentation anymore, so I don't even know the companies name
to contact.

The name of a new EMS driver (CnT based) or the name and address of
the Turbo EMS company would greatly be appreciated.
