Problems with the Kulaga/Mauch DRO setup

Hi guys,

I've looked all over Dejanews for a hint to solving my problem but no
hits so far so I figgered I would throw it out in this forum of
knowledgeable experts.

I was intrigued by Tom Kulagas DRO-project and decided to go for that
setup for my lathe. To save time and to get it right from the start I
ordered the whole kit with etched board from Dan Mauch and today I put
the DRO-board together. A slight little problem came up though, the PC
refuses to boot with the card in place.

I've tried the card in two PCs, one a standard Intel Pentium 100 machine
and the other one a real old Intel 8088 DOS machine. They're both
erfectly clean PCs, not one extra card in there, I've tried all jumper
settings and different slot locations etc. etc. and I get the same
results on both machines, i.e. the PCs won't even boot with the DRO card
in place. I checked the card over real good and I can't see anything
wrong with the etching or soldering.

What throws me is that the PCs refuses to even boot, it doesn't even
signal the monitors when the DRO-card is in place.

I am totally lost, any hints?
