I too had trouble with Wing Commander 2 under DR-DOS 6.0.  I had the
April '92 update installed.  After trying just about everything
else, I found that it was the updated version of SSTOR.SYS that
was causing WC2 to crash.  I put the original October '91 version
of just that file back on my disk and WC2 works fine!  I have not
tried the December '91 update version of SSTOR.SYS.
