Nope, don't worry, this happened while I still had the SAM. It all worked, then I changed something one day and it stopped working (I think I have a buffer overrun on some border scrolltext code - it was always a bit, erm, temperamental because of the way I wrote it for speed :)). And for some reason I don't seem to have a working copy (ahem, version control? ;-) > BOOT 1 from an existing disk with DOS on it, and either: COPY "samdos2" > to "d2" (or whatever your DOS is called) to copy to a blank disk in the > 2nd drive. I've got a feeling saving it from memory where it booted to > didn't work for some reason (?). That's what I did - is there any way of copying dos onto an existing disk which doesn't have it? I guess not. Basically I grabbed the latest version of comet from Edwin's site and it didn't have DOS on it - which isn't too much of a problem but it bugged me that I couldn't remember how to do it! I'll let you know when I've finished fixing the demo - then I'll up it to NVG :) Geoff
