I was told that Informix was working on it (maybe somebody knows if it's been fixed???), but that the problem was related to how Informix had to use NT's registry. I would definitely recommend going with Unix over NT, even if you had to go with SCO. Informix has been working on Unix MUCH longer than it's been on NT.
