The following is from CONFIG.SYS used on my last PC that would run QEMM and DV: [MAX] SWITCHES = /F/W DEVICE=C:\Q\QEMM386.SYS RAM ROM BE:N XSTI=1A X=F000-F8FF X=FE00-FEFF SHELL=C:\Q\LOADHI.COM C:\DOS\COMMAND.COM C:\DOS\ /p /f /k C:\AE.BAT set AUTOBAT=AE.BAT set CONFIG=MAX DOS = HIGH BUFFERS = 8 FILES = 60 FCBS = 1,0 LASTDRIVE = Z DEVICE=C:\Q\LOADHI.SYS C:\DOS\RAMDRIVE.SYS 6144 128 512 /E set BUFFERS=SMALL set RAMDISK=6144 set DOSHIGH=YES BREAK=ON STACKS=0,0 Maybe it holds a clue to a solution? I haven't used DV since 1997 when I found I needed full GUI internet access and made OS/2, the better DOS than DOS of that age and still, my primary OS. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
