PCI BIOS 32 Service and Novell 4.1X, 3.12



-- [ From: David Marcionek * EMC.Ver #2.5.02 ] --

We have a report from one of our customers of a problem using our PC BIOS
product with Novell 4.1X and 3.12. Novell reports the following error
message with our BIOS installed. 

Warning: The PCI BIOS does not support protected mode BIOS accesses properly
.   The BIOS32 Service Directory does not comply with PCI BIOS specification
."

This problem does not occur with an alternate bios installed and we have
other sites running Novell which do not have this problem. Our BIOS passes
all the PCI BIOS compliance tests that I have and am aware of.

Anyone have any info on this. 

Also, anyone know of other PCI Compliance Test utilities besides PCIDIAG?

Thanks in advance.
