Well yuck. I figured VCPI or EMS problems would crop up, but I didn't count on the original EMM386 scanning and UMB code biting my rear end. I guess it needs a full shakedown -- at the least it seems like excluding areas should have fixed your particular problem with UMB's. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
