I've set the dip switch to indicate 2 internal and 1 external drive and loaded driver.sys with the following parameters: device=driver.sys /d:02 /c /f:0 The problem is that the system installs this drive as BOTH drives C: and D: This screws up my batch and autoexec files, which exect D: to be a ramdisk. If I leave out the device= line in config.sys, the system recognizes the external drive as c: and allows me to read from it. However, it is imossible to write to it! Any help in straightening this whole affair out would be greatly apreciated. Max S. Robin AT&T Bell Laboratories Whiany Road Rm 7C-004 Whippany, NJ 07981 email:whuts!2212msr voice:201-386-6865
