Thanks to all who had sent me mails or posted their experiences in the conference. Following is the message from the wizard who has same equipment as I do and had solved the problem. Special thanks to you, Juergen. One addition here is that I didn't use the setup disk to screen redirection but used the ROM setup, and it worked! _Tony ============================ From jsh@alice.att.com Sun Nov 18 06:42:29 1990 Received: from INET.ATT.COM by silver.ucs.indiana.edu (5.61+/9.2jsm) id AA00446; Sun, 18 Nov 90 06:42:28 -0500 From: jsh@alice.att.com Date: Sun, 18 Nov 90 06:39:25 EST To: tcheng@silver.ucs.indiana.edu Tony: Status: RO I'm using exactly the same machine and HAD exactly the same problem.

Correction: Windows does not like redirection of the screen to com-ports. Unfortunately, the WGS comes with screen redirection enabled to com2. You have to run the SETUP from you customer diskette (not the ROM-version!) to disable screen redirection. After that, the puzzle it solved....
