Did you get an answer to your question? (Below). If not, here's what I think is going on: too much memory! You have DOS 5, right? If you type LOADFIX /? <enter> at a DOS prompt, you'll see more about the error message. (Loadfix is a DOS 5 command). To make sure things work, change to the Chaos directory and type LOADFIX CHAOS <enter>. You should be up and running. If this works (and I'm sure it will!) edit the CHAOS.BAT file. Add the word loadfix in front of the line which contains the command METASHEL /i so that it might reads loadfix metashel /I and save the file. Then you should be able to type CHAOS <enter> and business will be back to usual. Nik I've just reinstalled CHAOS on my system after adding a math coprocessor, increasing hard disk capacity and installing windows. I installed the CHAOS program using both 3 1/2" and 5 1/4" diskettes. In both cases when I started the program the following message was returned and the program aborted: Packed file is CorruptError: Metagraphics not installed. Aborting Can anyone offer a suggestion of what my problem might be? THANKS!
