Thanks for the reply Katherine. My machine is is equipped with 8 megs ram, 256kb motherboard cache, and I use QEMM quarterdeck memory mgnt. I did try stripping my config.sys to the bare bones and did place the lines in different order. all to no avail. The CDROM drive is the only Radio Shack item in my system(The cheap one they were selling for $199 What is so baffling is the ability of this to run smoothly on my 386 with the same memory, etc.!! Tandy tech support doesn't appear to have much more expertise then the local sales rep! I am going to put it back in my 386 machine and buy a quality, supported ROM Drive for my 486!! It has been to time comsuming for such a MICKEY MOUSE problem. By the way, are you IRISH? Thanks for the chat. Bill Byrne
