If ]someone from novell.com can clarify this for me, I'd appreciate hearing from ]them, as I would indeed rather use QEMM... I need to move on to real support issues right now, so I haven't read the entire thread available right now, _but_ you mention using SSTOR. The things that I need to see are: The CONFIG.SYS on your bootable hard disk partition (non-compressed). If you are loading DEVSWAP.COM, you will _not_ find it on drive C:, it will probably be on drive D:. Next you'll need to find the file that this CONFIG.SYS CHAINs to with "CHAIN=" and let us see it. Then, you'll need to show us the AUTOEXEC.BAT on your C: drive (this is probably the one that you posted)... I suspect that the CONFIG.SYS that we saw is the wrong one because I don't remember seeing the SSTOR.SYS driver (I could just be brain damaged, but I'll check when I get another news timeslice). -- John "Frotz" Fa'atuai frotz@novell.com (email@domain) Desktop Systems uunet!novell.com!frotz (bang address) Group/Novell NOVELL:FROTZ or FROTZ@NOVELL (MHS address) c/o TS Dept. 408/645-2067 (vmail) 80 Garden Court 408/649-8209 (fax) Monterey, CA 93940
