Hi Ed:
Yep we did that, turned all the power management controls on the server to "Never". The O/S on the server is Win98, on the W/Stations it's Win95. My "Techie/Hardware supplier" doesn't beleive that this is a factor however I'm not so sure. Mind you he is Very Good!!
It's the usual conflict , I say its the hardware, they say its my software! <bg>
