When it tried to run the demo program (a 32 bit solitare game) it said: "Need WIN32S.386 to run this; can't find it", or words to that effect. The funny thing is, that program was there all the time. Tried expanding it separately and putting copies in every conceivable sub-dir, but still didn't work. I got the W32S.ZIP from the Mosaic UIUC home page, so I assume it's good. Am in the process of updating the latest IMB system files & DOS, starting from scratch with no TSR's, and all the other usual kick-the-tires tricks. Could you list your CONFIG.SYS/AUTOEXEC.BAT and I'll try doing it the same way? >>process of putting the latest PCDOS 6.3 and various utilities from the IBM FTP > > Is there any advantage to pcdos?

I see the other messages on the DOS wars, and I wouldn't touch that with a ten foot pole. The only DOS I've understood was CPM. I use PCDOS cause that's what came with it. <G> >>My object is to get Mosaic 32 bit working.

Some more feature that don't have anything to do with the operating system, but not available on the 16 bit version. I use PCTCP on both the desktop, for direct ethernet connection, and for the 750 for remote SLIP connection. It wortks fine both ways and the installation was not bad. After the SLIP connection is made on the 750, I do mail with PC EUDORA for windows, QVT for news, Mosaic for the fun stuff, and the PCTCP utilities for FTP & Telnetting. >>I just saw the introduction from Jesse Montrose who has a similiar setup to >>me.
