There are several reasons for this, first and foremost among them that some of your global variables might be half on the card, and half in main memory. Also, the system has a status table in memory that contains card status info- it is updated every time there is an insertion or removal of a card. If you try to remove a merged RAM card, you will be very lucky to not cause complete memory corruption and loss. Dave Marsh
