SHARE should be loaded, especially if using SSTOR DR DOS does not require SHARE for large volumes. It only exists because some programs, expecting the brain dead MS DOS 4.0, check to be sure that SHARE is loaded. DR DOS' SHARE is only needed if you're using a multitasker or task switcher (or network), which we don't know. >>Here's the error message: >>EMM386: Write attempted to relocated BDOS from 02C1:1B45 CR2=00103000 >>Can someone comfortable with DR DOS 6.0 help me sort this out? >I'd say you still have a bit of work to do with your CONFIG.SYS & >AUTOEXEC.BAT files. >No flame...you just need to read the manual a bit more. >Good Luck Chuck Reichert You might want to know that kmcvay@zoo is a bogus address, according to the mailer at CUNYVM, and so is kmcvay@zoo.bitnet. You need to load EMM36 explicitly, by including it in the CONFIG.SYS, or alternatively USE that QEMM program you have commented out, by using the installer program that comes with either. QEMM is supposed to be better, but I've never tried it, and DR DOS' memory manager works very well indeed for me. (I have 636K of memory available for programs, after I load two TSRs). -- ============================================================================== Carl Fink carlf@panix.com, C.FINK4(GEnie), or CF427620I@LIUVAX.BITNET "Nothing so needs reforming as other people's habits" - Mark Twain
