Laszlo,
Thanks for the info!
Since I posted my message, I switched to MS-DOS's smartdrv. At first it was
just a trouble shooting attempt, but smrtdrv in DOS 6.2 now supports CDROM
cacheing and appears to be about half the resident size. As far as performance
goes, I have not determined the difference. I suspect smartdrv will be much
slower…?
I also re-optimized my Quarterdeck QEMM resulting in a more stable system AND
more base memory (572k up from 535k). I still have had a couple MS WIN
problems, particularly with XTree for windows (v2.0). However, the UAE only
trashes Xtree, not the whole system.
Now my next problem!!!
OS/2: The COREL OS/2 install program states it will load ASPILS_O.SYS, then
requests reboot. Upon reboot, During boot, OS/2 stops and says it has not
loaded the ASPIL_O driver but does not say why. Any suggestions?
I very much appreciate your assistance!
