I replaced it with a functioning daughter clone, no change. With
Dani, Uniaud and Snap all I have to do is swap NIC drivers in
config.sys. And then there is Win that won't run, but DOS does.

I made a CD and booted it. It started running. I did not try to
influence it's behavior. It has been running for about an hour and a
half. I had never seen this program, and did not know what to expect
or how to interpret it. It seems to say the machine has 384M, all
bad. I think that might not be true because it has to run on something.

If it ever stops, with some message I will post it.
