Hello, Wayne.

Good. I'll appreciate it if you will give me hand with the drivers from
the Promise website.  I emailed Promise about the prob about a week ago,
but I haven't heard back from them yet.

Great!  Please  post here a DIR of how you sorted them out. And please
especially see and comment on those 4 files with filename ULTRA.CAT,
since they weren't mentioned in the filelist from the readme.txt file.

Thanks in advance - - -  JimH.
