Sender: owner-paper@nacm.com Precedence: bulk Hello all, I was trying out some different test with Windows' DOS 7 and dos in a window. I booted to a command prompt and loaded my mouse driver and tested 1.99p4... well there was no delay in the disk. Quick flicker of light and presto, up pops the disk display folder...hmmm, I know I had tried this before on this machine and it was slow. reboot windows create a default msdos application shortcut. Point it to Executor, and try IT out. No go, back to slow drives... it is usable, barely, I just have to open each dos drive in turn and then all the subdirectories load just fine. but if I write to a drive, It has to "re-pause" and slowdown again. then it is usable again. I hope this is helping more than it is spamming everybodies in box. Mark
