Depends on the definition of `soft error' on a NE765-style dumb FDC. The FDC itself has no notion of a soft error, except perhaps if you count a CRC error in a data field as such -- but that's already losing information, since there's no ECC, only CRC available. -- J"org Wunsch Unix support engineer joerg_wunsch@interface-business.de http://www.interface-business.de/~j
