The catch is that I have the memory strapped for non-autoconfig, so that brain-damaged programs like Halley Project can run. I just copied the Falcon disk and added the addmem statement before running Falcon. I don't know if it will run with the black box in .75 Mb, but it should run with a second drive in .75 Mb. I did get it to work, and I play on a daily basis. There was no perceptible increase in loading time after adding the addmem. My disk does not thrash excessively, even though I altered the state of a nearly full disk. Must be all that clean living ;-) -ethan -- Ethan R.
