To identify if you have a too many blocks assigned to your process check the
sizes of each file related to the program (Sound.Master, Runb, GFX2, etc.) Then
determine how many 8K blocks would be required to hold each file. For example
if Runb is 9K long then you would need 2 blocks and so on. If the total number
of blocks used is 7 or more you have too much assigned to your process (the
program needs a block t make system calls.) If you mere all the files into one
you can reduce the number of blocks needed. If GFX2 is 3K and is merged with
Runb (9K) the resulting file size is 12K so it only needs 2 blocks instead of 2
for Runb and 1 for GFX2.
However funny things can happen when you have a long boot list like you have
described. Why don't you try running the program from a 2 floppy boot.(Leave
out the other drivers and run a bare minimum system) If that works then you
will have to rearrange the order of your drivers so that you can run it with
your hard drives.
