   Hi John,   
      
   JK>Borland C++ 3.1 fails.   
      
   I have never tried that.   
      
   JK>FP12 seems good here too. But I had to use IBM1S506.ADD from MCP2 to   
   JK>get my SIS IDE controller using UDMA.  And the IBM com.sys driver   
   JK>from MCP2 works with my PCI serial card.   
      
   There's another solution that I prefer, the DaniS506.ADD but as long as   
   your solution works that's the main objective. There are a heap of other   
   Danielas drivers that substitute the original IBM supplied ones.   
      
   JK>Running a stress test with SIO (1.60d) shows that it uses 100% of   
   JK>the CPU on an inbound transfer at 115200. The IBM com.sys only uses   
   JK>3% on the same test. SIO gives the app many small packets, hammering   
   JK>the CPU.   
      
   I haven't checked that, as long as it works it's OK with me.   
      
   Have a nice day,   
      
   Holger
