Hello there, I have installed a second drive on my 386SX system and my system stalls whenver it reaches the statement "device=emm386.exe noems". If I disconnect the 2nd drive everything runs without any problem. When you install a second drive hard disk, is anything in a specific memory location stored that the emm386 device driver is trying to access and makes the system halt? I would appreciate any ideas or any troubleshooting tips. I have tried removing the statement "device=emm386.exe noems" from my config.sys and everything works fine. I have 6Mbytes installed in my system. I tried the ram option for the emm386 statement but still the system stalls. Would anything in the frame statement be causing a problem? I think that the default setting for the frame statement is d000 meaning address d0000 in HEX. I am using DOS 5.0 and I 'd like to keep this version because a C compiler that I have does not work well with dos 6.00. Please feel free to send mail to rsl11@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu or chris@iroquois.cecase.ukans.edu Thanks, chris.
