Gayle, one thing that immediately comes to mind concerning your config.sys file is that everything I've ever read recommends that HIMEM.SYS, if used, and EMM386.SYS must be in the first two lines of the config.sys. This is in order to allow memory allocations to work properly. I'd put the EMS driver next in line, then think about the rest of it. Have you tried this? BTW, if your EMM and EMS drivers are on the SuperStor partition, pull them out and place them on a non-compressed partition. I keep hearing of problems over in IBM-land having them on the compressed partition. Brian bjbart@watserv.ucr.edu
