That's not it. The PC itself is hanging before any operating system is loaded.
It's not the PAS 16 s/w installation that's causing a problem I can't even get
that far:-)

To reiterate. If I plug in the PAS 16 the PC hangs during its power-up
self-test. If I remove the card the PC works fine. The card itself works fine in
another machine.
