Unfortunately the CD-ROM MUST be the last one in the chain (it is, by design, a chain terminator). As for the SMARTDRV / EMM386 issue, > i always thought that was only for scsi *hard disks.* I really don't know - I am now on a Mac, so I can't confirm, but quoting from memory, I believe there's no mention of HD in the DOS HELP stuff. It would, however, make sense if it only mattered in the case of HDs... Finally, I will re-post my earlier request in a slightly different way: is anyone out there willing to let me peep at "fully annotated" versions of their CONFIG.SYS / AUTOEXEC.BAT files - the tips I'm looking for, of course, are the ones related to the drivers, order of loading, etc, which may enable my silly system to start behaving like a once-top-of-the-line machine! :) Is it really so hard to get a TP to talk in a civil manner to a couple of SCSI devices?!...
