Hunch: The swap drive you've specified doesn't have enough space
a/o you have insufficient lower memory.  Are you swapping to disk
rather than memory because you don't have sufficient EMS or XMS
memory?  Use Mem /c to check memory useage.  Use Chkdsk to check
disk space.

Unless you're changing the location of Command.com to use,
Comspec is normally defined by the Shell statement in your
Config.sys.  Make sure Command.com is located at the Comspec
location reported when running the Set command.

Hunch: You have insufficient lower memory.  Assuming that you're
using Zip are you using the internal Zip or an external one like
Pkzip?  Try launching OLX directly from the OLX command line
rather than through Qmodem via .
