Thanks for the reponse! My internet provider has been down for several
days, hence the delay on my end... I've got the problem resolved. My
suggestion for anyone having the same problem, who has tried using the
various switches with "win", but is still unsuccessful... Try
reconfiguring your autoexec.bat and config.sys files with a bare minimum
configuration. No smartdrv.exe or emm386.exe or any of that... Then try
rebuilding the files once you've successfully run Windows, a line at a
time. something in those files is the culprit. Again, thanks to everyone
who wrote me!
