I did get FastMax2 to work. The "execute_me" file referred to should really be the FastMax2/FastMax2/FastMax file from lharcing the fastmax.lzh file. I just put a copy of this file in the same directory as my "A-Max Startup" file and typed "fastmax", and it proceeded to find the roms in the A_Max box and copy them into a file, then modify the "A-Max Startup" program. For the modified a-max startup to work, I found that I had to be in the same directory that contained the "Mac ROM" file when I started up A-Max. Works like a champ. I am still using A-MaxII 2.0; there was an earlier report that fastmax2 does not work with v. 2.06.
