We have recently upgrade an AS 255/233 with a PowerStorm 3D30 video card to
DU ver. 4.x. First we tried to do a full install, and we kept getting
'machine checks'. After going through a fews rounds with tech support & our
var, they said that we needed the latest version of open3D (which was only
available through the layered products CD). We were also told that any
server that we upgrade to 4.x will need open3D because the CDE interface
uses it. Well, we did manage to reload 3.2x back onto the AS 255 & then
upgrade our way to 4.x. This time we didn't get a 'machine check' until
about one week later. Since we had the open3D license & aquired the CD we
installed open3D and haven't had a problem, yet.
Now for the real question... We want to upgrade our two AS 2100's to 4.x.
They both have S3 Trio64 video cards. We do want to use the CDE interface
so, do we need to get open3D license's for these servers & install it after
we upgrade to 4.x?
Thanks in advance,
Steve McFadden
