Hi FWIW, using qemm 6.01 I have the line down as c:\q\loadhi r:2 c:\w\mscdex.exe /s /d:mscd001 /m:10 /e please note the /e switch at the end. If you use QEMM, it will allocate EMS or XMS space as required. With ten buffers (/M:10), you get the most out of your CD-ROM, but the 20Kb (10x2kb) memory is not taken up in UMB or low memory but in EMS. This way mscdex.exe takes only 15Kb in the UMBs. In your case you'd dump 30Kb in EMS. Regards Black Peter
