I got the msg "error reading drive h:" even with the /S switch. No files or

Can anyone show me how to get info on the command line switches of MSCDEX

I had a problem like this and it turned out that Adobe type manager
and the generic driver are incompatible. Turn off ATM, exit windows,
re-enter windows, then try it. A royal pain. Anyone know if the latest
ATM fixes this? Mine is old (1.1 I think).

Possibly.  There are three rules you should follow when shutting down
the computer:

1.  Always exit all applications, exit Windows, exit everything, and get
back to a DOS prompt if you are about to shut down the machine.

2.  If you run SmartDrive disk cache, further wait about 5 seconds
before you turn off the machine, to allow the write buffers to be
flushed to disk.

3.  If the unthinkable happens and your machine crashes and you must
reboot without being able to get to a DOS prompt, then:

When the machine comes back up, type CHKDSK/F to check the hard disk
for errors.  You will often find some "lost clusters" which come about
when files are open and not closed.  These cause no damage, but they DO
take disk space away.  Over time they can build up.  When asked whether
to save the clusters as files, you should usually answer "No", which
tells DOS to simply forget about the lost clusters.  If the number of
lost clusters is small, you might consider answering "Yes", but then you
will have to look through the FILExxxx.CHK files which are created as a
result, and either rename or delete the resulting file fragments
yourself.

If you just turn the machine off while it is running Windows or other
things, you will likely kill your machine eventually.  Always go back to
DOS and let the computer update itself before your stop it.

If you've been doing these things already and you still have trouble...
well, it must be something else.  But this is a common thing for new DOS
users to do.

You can play them when you have installed a sound driver.  Most drivers will
need a sound card.  You can however download from cica a sound driver that
will work from your PC speaker.  The quality is not as good but what more

     I admit I nearly puked a couple of times after failed sstor 
installations!  There is an UPDATE function that is used to move drivers 
into the non-compressed partition if they are listed before the sstor 
drivers.  Any attempts at doing this manually screws up.  
     
IMPORTANT!!!  Take an evening and run the repair and defrag programs.

     Pull all the 386max stuff out of D: that you put there yourself.  Then, 
edit your config.sys to put them before the sstor drivers.  Then, run the 
UPDATE utility.  This moves any drivers called before the sstor drivers into 
the uncompressed partition.  This should still "point" to the right place.  
Remember, there IS no D: until the sstor drivers run, and you will go quite 
berserk trying to out-guess the system.

     Once you get the blasted thing running, run the repair, check, and 
defrag utilities at least once a week.  Good luck!

You may not have the PIF file set up correctly, BECAUSE the
COMMAND.COM might not be where the original PIF file expected it.
In the old days it was always in the root directory of the hard
drive, but now it usually ends up in the C:\DOS directory or
something like that, courtesy of DOS 5.0.  Here's what you do:
first, exit Windows and find out JUST where COMMAND.COM lives
on your system.  For this example, let's say it's in C:\DOS5.
Now, go into Windows; open group MAIN, select PIF EDITOR, select FILE,
select OPEN, and look for DOSPRMPT.PIF. (If you can't find it,
and it SHOULD be in your Windows directory itself, quit and choose
NEW to create DOSPRMPT.PIF)
Set: Program Filename to: COMMAND.COM
         Window Title to: MS-DOS Prompt
or whatever you like, and
   Start-up Directory to: C:\DOS5
(THAT should be the problem!).
Other normal settings, copied from mine: Video Memory=Text,
Memory Required is -1, Kb desired = -1, EMS Kb Required=0,
EMS KB Limit = 1024, XMS KB Required=0, XMS KB Limit = 1024

My computer keeps locking up using Windows 3.1!  Does anyone else have a

ates with 0 wait state and I have an expansion memory board from Boca Research
that operates with 0 wait state.

DOS is in the high memory area, I do not use an extended memory manager,
I have two programs (FASTOPEN and KEYB.COM) 'LOADEDHIGH' and I have 4 devices
in 'DEVICEHIGH' in CONFIG.SYS.  Do I need an extended memory manager for these

windows but the computer keeps locking up!

Subject: SuperStor 2.0 Installation experiences

After getting a lot of very good advice from this newgroup, I set
about installing SuperStor 2.0 on my Gateway 2000 386DX with an 80Mb
IDE hard drive.  I'm running MS-DOS 5.0, 386MAX, and Windows 3.1.

(Incidently, this post contains NO Windows-specific questions, but
this newsgroup is only one on which I can find SuperStor users.)

The installation did not go well.  When SSTOR finished PREPARING
my hard disk and I re-booted, DOS told me it couldn't find COMMAND.COM.
I had to get out my DOS 5.0 installation disks and copy EXPAND.EXE
to my C: drive, and then use EXPAND.EXE to get EDLIN off the installation
disks.  Then I used EDLIN to change the SHELL statement in my CONFIG.SYS
to point to a copy of COMMAND.COM on the uncompressed drive.  I could
then boot (almost) normally.  It was then I discovered that for some
reason there were NO files in my C:\DOS directory (C: being the compressed
drive).  Evidently SuperStor forgot to copy them when it compressed
everything.  Since I installed DOS 5.0 using the "vanilla" installation
procedures, I'm at a lost to understand why SuperStor would have trouble
with this.

Anyway, I restored my C:\DOS directory from the backup I made prior to
installing SuperStor and continued.

Next I thought I'd re-run 386MAX's MAXIMIZE to get the SuperStor
driver loaded high.  Of course, 386MAX.SYS has to be loaded before
SSTORDRV.SYS, so 386MAX.SYS (and many other 386MAX files) have to
reside on the uncompressed portion of my disk.  However, this portion is
presented as the D: drive to MAXIMIZE, and I haven't been able to convince
MAXIMIZE that it shouldn't use C: in filenames.  I guess I'll be talking
to the 386MAX people today.

So, I edited my CONFIG.SYS to change the C:'s that MAXIMIZE put in to
D:'s and re-booted.  Imagine my surprise when 386MAX.SYS started reporting
that it couldn't find any of the things it was supposed to load!  Further,
imagine my anguish when my AUTOEXEC.BAT finished and DOS gave me the
message "File Allocation Table Bad".

Now, any attempt to run a program just causes my machine to hang.

Any advice?

Thanks for listening, and thanks in advance for any help you can give.
