PMJI, but I avioded the whole startup file thing (dual config.sys and A.bat) by simply REMing the stacker SSWAP line in the config.sys. What this does is simply gives you back your C: drive and leaves it alone. Your machine boots up and leaves you on your boot drive until you change to your stacked drive (which is now D: or whatever it was swapping C: with). Since I was constantly changing my startup files, this made my life much easier, considering that I only had one set to change now, and all of my system files, drivers, and utilities (including Qemm's Optimize, which works fine this way) would be kept on my C: drive, and my C: would no longer be swapped with another drive letter. The only drawback is that all your programs on your stacked drive, which is now D: (or whatever), need to be reconfigured so they know they're no longer on C:. Of course, dos 6 and stac 3.1 now now avoid the whole thing altogether. I can't be held responsible if someone tries this and their system crashes and burns <g>, but it worked for me for over a year. I have a new system with plenty of space (so far) so I don't have stacker installed anymore. But remember kiddies, backup, backup, backup…. David
