This particular 715 appears to have a Scorpio EISA bus adapter. I see no mention of WAX as a device in the boot logs (excerpt appended below). Is the Scorpio a good or a bad thing in regards to getting this bus working? I also have a 755 with a Cobra EISA BA, any idea whether that will work either?

It's possible, but I'm not sure it can be done without programming the WAX interface (that's a thing the person who last read the WAX documents can tell us ... unfortunately we no longer seem to have a copy of the docs).
