All, yes, you can set the shell to command.com or prime95, or whatever. There is another way to interact with the system, you can do this by pressing Ctrl+Esc to bring up the tasks menu. From there, you can run any program that you want to. This seems like it might increase the system resources available to prime95. You could combine this with: safe mode, a boot menu which can load up an autoexec.bat that would make this automated: eg: :prime95 del c:\prime95\system.tmp copy c:\windows\system.ini c:\prime95\system.tmp del c:\windows\system.ini copy c:\prime95\system.ini c:\windows\system.ini you could even do something similar with the registry, to reduce overhead. -Lucas ________________________________________________________________ Unsubscribe & list info -- http://www.scruz.net/~luke/signup.htm
