Hi Mike,

I don't know for sure, but I've heard that DOS apps and NT can have problems ... one of my customers was going to check that out for me as they are installing NT, but I haven't heard back from him yet. I'd stay with Win95/98 if I were you. The only possible problem might be the fast CPU problem.

HTH,
-Bonnie
