After installing it i noticed a, ~100%+ performance decrease. I have a 25MHz 386 with a Genoa 6400 SVGA card and 8-Megs ram, of which, 2-Megs is used by SmartDrv.sys and 3-megs is used as a ramdrive for a swapfile in 386 Enh mode. Does anyone know of a better "setup" that will maybe increase performance??? Thanks! Shaun nu158739@ndsuvm1.bitnet -- wetzstei@plains.nodak.edu
