   The ROSAT All Sky Survey revealed a number of IRAS galaxies with high
   X-ray luminosities. Generally they have steep soft X-ray spectra and
   are not classified unambiguosly as active or non-active galaxies. It is
   proposed to expand on an earlier observation by studying two further
   cases with ASCA, so as to establish the nature of these objects and
   determine the relative importance of Starburst and AGN processes in
   producing the high emission levels. An AGN component may show up at
   harder X-rays, while the contribution of thermal emission associated
   with Starburst can be established from the soft part of the ASCA X-ray
   spectrum. The results of this study are of great interest in view of
   competing explanations with AGN or with Starburst for low activity
   levels in otherwise normal galaxies.
