That replace message on the PCjr is very hard to get rid of
unless you can put all of your files on drive a: .

Another solution it to add more memory and set up a
ram disk, copy the files on your b: disk to the ram 
disk and use the assign command to cause requests to
drive b: to go th the ram disk.

Most of your jr's wont need 256 for most of their work
so you can move the memory sidecars from the ones who 
dont' need it, to the ones who do, and that solves the 
memory problem. I used a ram disk program from a bbs and
it worked well.

Good Luck
