It is definitely possible to do all 32-bit accesses... but that requires activating and exclusively using the command buffering feature, because direct 32-bit access to the taskfile registers will result in a 32-bit access to Data rather than the desired effect. The chip docs are at http://gkernel.sourceforge.net/specs/sii/ for those unfamiliar with my doc archive. Jeff
