Claus Brod does not read this newsgroup. So he will not be able to react. However, *I THINK* I know why CBHD redirects TRAP #1. With this driver you can boot from all harddisk partitions. Which means that: 1) All auto folder programs are read from the boot partition 2) The same goes for the ACC's 3) And for the DESKTOP.INF 4) If you save the desktop it is saved on the boot partition. The latter is new in CBHD 3.5. Formerly the desktop.inf was allways saved on C. I think Claus had to redirect the TRAP #1 vector to make this possible. Is there another way? ============================================================== Dept. of Occup. & Chris Evelo Environm. Health MFAGKCHR@HMARL5 (BITNET) and Toxicology.
