Summary: I would like to know if anyone knows how to run STN -after- 
booting DOS.  (say, using LOADLIN or such-like)

Details:

I am working on getting STN to work on a 486 MoBo w/o a PnP BIOS.
The 3Com internal "conventional" modem that I have, is a purely PnP 
modem. (no jumpers, and no way to set static settings in hardware or 
NOVRAM.)

Normally this is not an issue as the O/S I was using it with supports 
PnP.  However, with STN, there is no way to "program" the cards 
parameters before it tries to initialize it.

3Com does provide a DOS utility that sets the cards paramaters from the 
command line (or a batch file).

So, it seems to me that I need to start DOS, run this little program, 
and then start STN.

Is this doable?  I have heard that earlier versions of STN used the DOS 
system files on the floppy it was running off of.  Can I do that with 
-this- version too?

Jim
