Because STACKS=9,256 is a very common setting; I thought it was the best one.

I should test InterServer anyway, thanks for reminding me. I also tried diverse configs with same results. Anyway I should try more configs to see if IL is willing to work. > You just wrote "various contents" for config sys - but to get started, > an as fail-safe as possible config would be better. Sorry about that, I tried DEVICE=INTERLNK.EXE as the only line in CONFIG.SYS, then I added XMS drivers in subsequent tests. Still got Invalid Opcode (followed by a bunch of hexadecimal gibberish). In my PC 340, when I used FDXMS.SYS, the computer rebooted after loading InterLink. When I used Microsoft/IBM HIMEM.SYS, I got the Invalid Opcode, when I used no XMS driver on the PC 340, I got Invalid Opcode. IIRC, on my 386 both XMS drivers yielded Invalid Opcode. Anyway, I got a decent start on it, thanks for the tips, now we can go further with this on my Pentium Class PC 340 and my 386 SX. Heck, maybe we should later try File Maven, a freeware alternative to InterLink/InterServer, if IL/IS has no hope for FreeDOS.
