All other features appear to work fine. Basically, nice because they took the entire mess of tiny drivers in prior versions of DOS PCMCIA enablers and drivers and packed it up into just a handful. Saw my 2GB Toshiba PCMCIA HD right away, so that was nice vs. having to mess with the configuration of older versions. I'm still playing around with all of them to see which is the best for me, but I'm leaning towards UNATA because it's very small and can be unloaded from the command line, while being the easiest to use. I don't know of USB DOS support - heard FreeDOS was attempting to incorporate it in, but it's a work in progress with nothing ready to use yet AFIK. Suppose you'll just have to download the demo and try. Haven't tried loading anything into extended memory yet, just playing with them. But for sure, the older versions could be as they had a file that got loaded in config.sys to allow the rest to load high. --- In the end, it's too bad the rest of the world left DOS behind for many years when they migrated to GUI OSs. It really makes a lot of perfectly good equipment obsolete for no better reason, but thankfully, movements like FreeDOS are incorporating the latest features in a small, svelte OS. Hmmm... maybe I'll have to see if I can get my Libretto to run WP and Arachne under dos when I get the time.... ===== adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
