I have recently bought an external SCSI drive (Maxtor 8760S) with an
Adaptec 1542B controller.  The SCSI is Fdisked and formatted with DOS 4.01.
I am running DOS XMS Driver (ver 2.77) and MS SMARTDrive Disk Cache (ver 3.11).

What I want to do is move Win3 and associated files (Winword, Excel, ToolBook,
etc.) from Drive C: to the SCSI Drive D: without reinstalling Windows and the
other files.  I plan to do the following;

        -       xcopy the Windows directory and subdirectories to D:
        -       edit *.ini in Windows directory to reflect the new drive
        -       edit *.grp in Windows directory for same reason
        -       change Path statement in autoexec.bat

Will this work?  Do I need to do anything else like including "VirtualHDirq=
FALSE" in [386Enh] section of system.ini?

Thanks for any advice you can give me.
