Hello everyone, I, like many others it seems, held back on getting into the Windows arena until version 3. This release holds much progress, and it's turned me from a crotchety fan of the command line into a GUI proponent. However, also like many others, I went out of my way to get hardware which would enhance WIN 3 performance. Currently I'm running a 286/25 clone with 2 40MB MFM HDs and 4 MB RAM. I would like to have a permanent swap file for WIN 3. I com- pacted my drives, each of which has 10 MB free, but when I try to install a Swapfile it reports an error similar to the one mentioned in the Subject line. Is it something in my Karma? Is it something in my Config.sys? It has to be one or the other! But seriously, has anyone experienced this? Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Carmen PS: Yes, I was in Real Mode when I attempted to set it up; I followed the docs, and I even re-installed it last night, all to no avail! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mr. Carmen Iannacone Email: cci8j@Virginia.EDU Department of Computer Science 304 14th Street N.W.
