Thank you all for helping me with the Orchid Pro II driver problem, which was
caused by my own stupidy. All the drivers are there, I just didn't find them.
They are ABOVE 8514/a which I though was the top. Now that I selected the 
1024x768x256 driver, windows asked for a font disk, then again it won't recog
nize it. After shuffling disks around it finally readin the font files. So far,
so good. Then setup tells me to restart windows, and when I did that out pops 
a message saying "windows/386 protection error, please reboot". What the #$%^ ?!  
After this I can only work in standard or real mode. Could anyone help me solve
this problem? My machine is a 25 Mhz 386 with 4 Meg of RAM. Thanks in advance.
