Well now the system is locking up when it looks for new messages at
logon.  I took out the menus.bbs, and I have never run the
ramfiles.bbs.  There isn't anything else to do.  I guess I will try
QEMM tomorrow and see if it is a memory thing, but I have 189,xxx
available now, so that shouldn't be it.  I am considering running it
of Windows to see if I can gain more memory that way too.  Besides I
would like to run remote access and I need windows installed.
