The readme file notes that only version 1.0 of Manifest dies. BTW, trying to run MFT 1.0 under QEMM will not crash too badly, since QEMM's protection actually lets me return to DOS. This is not so with the DOS/HIMEM combination, which simply lets the system hanggggggggggg. >Stephen M. Smith \ + / -------- I have successfully installed DOS 5.0 on a PS/2 running OS/2 v1.3 You must, of course, first boot DOS with the BOOT /DOS option in OS/2 before installing DOS 5.0. The result is the ability to run DOS 5.0 when you boot dos, but you still have to run the modified DOS Command.com which OS/2 uses when you need dos mode. Sorry, no DOS 5.0 functionality while running OS/2.
