Recently, I rearranged my hard disks (2 IDE) in order to interchange the master and slave. This meant that the windows directory and its subdirectories moved from C: to D:. I dutifully went through the system.ini and win.ini files as well as the path statement to change the necessary instances of C: to D:. While most applications nou run, there are a couple of things that still cannot find necessary pieces but which I don't know how to correct. These are the edit and qbasic programs. The "properties" dialog entry does point to the correct path but apparently there is something else that I need to do. Does anyone know what? Also, the Accessories program group originally disappeared and I had to manually recreate it. Why was that? Thanks in advance, -Graham Brand
