Well, to my surprise, Windows reported that I had an incompatible driver in my config.sys file, and wouldn't let me do it. I checked in config.sys, and the only drivers there are DMDRVR (for the disk, from Disk Manager), and ANSI (for the keyboard). Is DMDRVR the culprit? I had it before, with my old(smaller) disk, but I may never have tried to create a permanent swapfile then, so I'm not sure that's it. Any help? Thanks, Joe
