SYMPTOMS
========

If you are using a Diamond Speedstar 64 video adapter in a NEC VERSA/P 75
computer running Windows for Workgroups 3.11, the computer may stop responding
(hang) when you log on to a Microsoft Windows NT domain if you have logon
scripts located on the Windows NT domain controller.

CAUSE
=====

The Diamond Speedstar 64 video adapter driver is not compatible with the NEC
VERSA/P 75 computer. The Diamond Speedstar video adapter driver causes the
computer to hang when it runs logon script files from the Windows NT server.

RESOLUTION
==========

To work around this behavior, use a different video adapter driver (such as the
standard VGA driver), or install a different video adapter.
