Another way to make the software work is to edit the 'boot' file for the software being used ( most programs have one ! ). Usually you will find it has a dedicated line, or two, that has a specific device in it, e.g, 'mdv1_' of 'flp1_'. Simply change any references to what you want to have ... e.g. lrun win1_games_name_of_prog_I_want ... and save the newly altered 'boot' file to your hard disk directory. This way you have a dedicated 'boot' file version, and you can forget about anything more complex; and you never have to think about it again. This what I do for the majority of my QL software on hard drive with QPC2. -- Malcolm Cadman
