The good news is, yes, my program now runs successfully under FreeDOS. [noisy, frantic hard drive] is because the UltraDMA mode disabled in BIOS, download UDMA2 from FreeDOS.org and try. Alas, the old (pre-1997) machine I've set up with FreeDOS reports that my c:\ drive (in LBA mode) does not support ultraDMA, so udma2.sys wasn't loaded.

Too bad, when you got a Pentium II and a not-so-old hard disk, you'll found UDMA very helpful. Rgds, Johnson. --- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
