That's the conclusion I came to also. I just gave MSCDEX a drive that was "out a couple" of letters, and then fudge my RAMDRIVE as needed. It's a pain if you add a new hard drive, since they all load "at once" with the controller, either before or after the RAMDRIVE, and you can't move the RAMDRIVE to after the CD-ROM, as you noticed. Presumably the solution is a RAMDRIVE.SYS which accepts a drive flag. I don't know if there is one available, but the one from Microsoft certainly doesn't.
