SH> Hello all, (again.. {sigh} ) I've come to some sort of a

I'll try that. (Rather - I'll switch back to that)

Hmm.. I've noticed that it reports a lot of problems that it "didn't cause"
but when I don't run it, I don't get nearly as many errors.. Curious Eh?

I don't know. It loads from the command line, but it refuses to load from
Autoexec.Bat, if anyone can figure out WHY, I'd really love to know.
ctually,
it might be because it loads high (via Memmaker's settings) in Autoexec, and
from the command-line it loads into conventional. Maybe Memmaker's already
used up all my High RAM?
