        Yes I have both Win95 and WinNT installed.  And my 1542CF is using
I/O port 0x130.  Do you have yours set to the same port?  I know people who
have their 1542CF set to 0x330 or 0x334 are able to get RH to see the
controller.  I was able to get my 1542CF recognized under Slackware Linux,
but not RH/Intel 4.0.
