Thanks, but I've allready checked the things with MS-DOS floppy. What I know now is that with MS I get no error messages, but I still can't check is the sound driver work, because apps which use sound claims that there is no enough memory. So actually I know nothing :) --- Original message

I've converted my HDD to FAT, so for a clear experiment I can try the MS622. As I understand I should now boot from A:, then install the mwave drivers and allow them to overwrite the autoexec.bat and config.sys on MS floppy, then reboot from floppy again and see if the mwave drivers were
