Hi John,
sorry for the confusion, but I addressed that to John Collyer who was
thinking about writing a new device driver. I havent installed XP yet
but if I'll do that I'll try the alternative driver (I have an Asus
board with VIA chipset anyway) and see what happens with RETRIEVE.EXE
and DSKINI.EXE.

Best regards,
Torsten
