Christophe, Just for the record, PARDRVP and the MCI drivers were created by DPS. I will try and help you to sort out the problems you've experienced based on my knowledge of how these programs work. PARDRVP and the MCI drivers are compatible – I was using them in Germany at CEBIT without a hitch. The reason why the MCI drivers are not coming up must be related to your setup. Check that the PARINIT line in your AUTOEXEC says the following: C:\DPS_PAR\PARINIT /P=C:\DPS_PAR /WIN=C:\WINDOWS The forward slash before WIN is very important. It is not recommended using the PARDRV file with PAL because there are differences (I can't remember them right now but it can cause you to save the files to the wrong size.) There are no specific PAL MCI drivers. The regular MCI drivers work fine. Also check the size of your virtual memory swap file in Windows – (Control Panels>386 Enhanced>Virtual Memory) and make sure your virtual memory is no larger than the size of your physical RAM.
