(OP)
I'm using some antiquated 6200 software with a KT card and win95..works great..BUT...trying to get a 1784-PCMK card and 6200 in win95 working on a laptop...windows loads the driver fine but the 6200 software halts with a "can not change communication state when I try to go 'who active'...thanks in advance for your help

I have used this before and it can be done. However, it is slow!!
The way this is achieved is to install RSLinx Lite on your PC. Configure the driver in RSLinx to "see" the PCMK card. This can be tested by using the RSWho facility to view all active nodes. Once you have done this, you need to configure the AB6200 software. Depending on the version, (I can`t recall the version I used, I think it was 5.3...) you need to configure it to RSLinx.
This means that when the software trys to communicate it will use RSlinx.

A little bit buggy, but so worth it for the speed.
Win98+ requires Linx.
