At our campus we're trying to use the IBM Data Aquisition and Control Adapter
along with the IBM support software (dated in 1984) on some
PS/2 Model 30-286's.

The test programs included with the program have a problem finding the
device adapter driver (loaded via config.sys) when using BASICA.

I myself would prefer to use some compiled language, but basica does
have it's instructional benefits.

using a memory viewer, i see the driver in memory, but basica is looking
for some interrupt vector and can't find it.

If you have any experience with this ibm combo, i'd appreciate any
advice you have.

Thanks,
