Just a general suggestion... Try breaking your problem into smaller pieces and solving them one at a time. For example: Instead of putting commands in AutoExec.Bat files, type them in once you're booted. You'll get a chance to test your system 'before and after' to see if what you do works. Once you find the 'key', you can put the commands into files knowing they are correct. Adding lines to Config.Sys one at a time gives you the chance to review error messages and status updates. You can use this to zero in on the source of your difficulty. As the other guy posted, your '/' should be separated from your command and attached to your switch. Cheers, PW. P.S. Try looking at the .TXT files in \WINDOWS\ for some hints. I'd recommend MSDOSDRV.TXT and HARDWARE.TXT for someplace to start. I think they have reasonable explanations for the type of stuff you're trying to accomplish.
