Thanks, that did the trick! That would imply it is always better to compile xms-swap version for CPU > 8088 ? So here I recap compiling FreeCOM for mere mortals. - Get and install Nasm (16bit, minimum version: 0.98.35) http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6208 - Get and install TurboC++ 1.01 http://community.borland.com/article/0,1410,21751,00.html - Get and unzip latest FreeCOM CVS http://fdos.org/kernel/freecom.HEAD.zip - Get and unzip Suppl to .\Freecom\Suppl2 http://freedos.sourceforge.net/freecom/packages/suppl.zip - Copy Config.std to Config.mak (in .\Freecom) - Address following in Config.mak: CC_BASE_PATH = C:\TCPP101 (substitute your path) NASM = nasm.exe (substitute your path) SUPPL_INC_PATH = ..\SUPPL2 - Insert in Config.mak after "CC = $(BINPATH)\TCC +$(CFG)" !if $(XMS_SWAP) CC = $(BINPATH)\TCC +$(CFG) -1 !endif - Create empty file "skip" in .\Freecom\Suppl Now (re)create your Command.com from .\Freecom with "build -r", and xms-swap version with "build -r xms-swap" Keep a copy of Suppl.zip and your Config.mak at hand when you decide to delete all Freecom sources before upgrading with a new Freecom-CVS-zip.
