Hi Gord,
	A few questions...

*	Which OS are you running ?

*	If its Win95, have you tried Restarting the Computer in DOS Mode ?

*	Have your tried explicitly stating the speed etc. on the Siocons
command line (-D9600)

Anybody else encounter set up problems like Gordan's.

PS Don't worry about the TV issue, it gave us an excuse to talk to many
of the other Members in person ;-)
