Brian, >> That would certainly remove some of the strain on your hard disk. Especially if you use a new cartridge. remember, though, that the temp files the FLC creates are not the only temp files written. Pharlap writes files to the drive specified in the CFIG386 settings. << Thanks — that is a useful piece of information. I'm aware of the temp file location setting in CFIG386. When you referred to the temp file conflict with Stacker, I thought these temp files were the ones you were referring to. Your info means I can maintain the temp dir location set in CFIG386, i.e. on the permanent drive, and safely render to the Sysquest drive, to which I assume, Pharlap will automatically send the flc related temp files, irrespective of the CFIG386 setting. By the way, this problem has been a serious headache for a long time. Your help is really appreciated — I wish I had asked sooner! Cheers, Chas ps: If you are ever in Newcastle upon Tyne I'll buy you pint! ;-} -Charles Dixon
