- Hello everyone,
- this is a short note to warn people against buying
- any of the Pro Audio products. We have bought several
- of the Pro Audio Spectrum 16 sound cards and have found
- that they do not work if you have a pc connected to a
- Novell Network.
-
- More importantly if you try the latest windows drivers put
- on ftp.cica.indiana.edu, you will find that the PAS16
- will not boot up with these drivers.
-
- We have found that the PAS16 drivers clash with netx.com
-
- We have also found that a tape drive cannot be connected
- to the SCSI port. Apparently (heard this second hand) Trantor
- does not support tape drives connected to this interface.
-
- what a dog!!!!!!
-
- what an expensive waste of money, so do not follow us.
-
- Anyone that has been able to get the PAS16 to work with windows
- on a novell network with a WD8003E card please let me know how,
- however, it would appear to be a software clash and thus terminal.
-
- Thank you
