USA Lines: 19 Hmmm... I don't have any problems of the sort that you describe, although my programs are different, my system doesn;t slow down to a crawl. I have a Mega 4, use GDOS, and use Microsoft Write. The documents that I work on are around 50-60 pages, and sometimes I have four documents in memory. I have configured a 2Mb Ramdrive using the Rambaby program (Intersect) and have QSTAUTO (a graphics speedup program), FSELV6 (a file selector) and FOLDR100 in my AUTO folder. I suspect it might be the driver somehow slowing the system down... -- Mark Newton-John (ames att sun)!pacbell! \ Sakura-mendo, CA ucdavis!csusac! - sactoh0!mfolivo uunet!mmsac! / the good guys!
