When I try to use Arachne I turn off the SCSI drives and reboot so the SCSI drivers don't load.

Using FAT32 does not help you in seeing drives and files on another computer, either via laplink or by other means. This is either handled by the program itself (as in the case of Laplink) or it is matter of the network redirector being used... As for being low on memory, the main source of your problems are likely being the use of the SCSI/ASPI drivers as you mentioned in a previous post. Those things are/were huge in terms of DOS in general. FreeDOS won't give you here much of an advantage over any other DOS...
