I use smartdrive, which I got with Microsoft Windows 3.0 as a disk caching program. It speeds things up immensely. However, programs I compile with djgcc will not work when I have smartdrive loaded. Does anyone know how to make it work? Alternatively, does anyone know of a compatible disk caching program? Thanks in advance, logan@sos.com

Try the version of smartdrive that comes with MS-DOS. The Windows version is specifically designed to work with Windows. For best compile results with djgpp, there should be at least 1M of available extended memory (as reported by MEM or CHKDSK). Running debug32 will tell you how much memory the extender has available for program use. Type "debug32 debug32.exe" if you don't have anything better to debug. DJ dj@ctron.com
