Well, I'm assuming that you mean the rom 1 GS. Soundsmith has a problem with the tool loader. It can prompt you to insert the system disk when it needs a tool, but it won't tell you to put the soundsmith disk back in the drive when it's finished loading the tool. My solution is to run the program from a ram disk, but since you only have 1.25 megs this probablly won't work. My suggestion to you would be to remove everything from the system disk that's not essential for booting, and then copy all the soundsmith files to the disk. That should let the program work properly with only 1 3.5 drive. UUCP: crash!pro-europa!henrym ARPA: crash!pro-europa!henrym@nosc.mil INET: henrym@pro-europa.cts.com America Online Dalamar11
