SUMMARY
=======

The IDEA5251/PC Twinax adapter that ships with the IDEAcomm 5250 emulation
package only works with Windows 95 and Windows for Workgroups. It will not
function under Windows NT.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Because this Twinax adapter requires that a certain block of memory be reserved
it will not function under Windows NT. Under Windows for Workgroups and Windows
95 this can be done using the "EXCLUDE" function of EMM386. There are no
versions of this card that will work with Windows NT.

IDEA is currently working on a version of the card and driver that will function
with NT.
