- I loaded stacker 3.0 on my 386 clone over Christmas and had no problems. I had
- a 3.5MB permanent swap file on my D: drive before stacker. Stacker took all of
- my files including the swap file into its 'E' drive which SSWAP turns back into
- 'D' at boot-up.
-
- 99% of the time I don't even notice I have stacker on. MEM/ commands will not
- always work and WP errors on printing with some message about C:, retry and the
- files print.
