Get it from:http://www= .datalight.com/products/romdos/productdetails_su.php Thanks. :) For what I want to do it would be nice to make sure it cross platform or at least cross dos. But the main one I want to use is FreeDos. Open Source will take priority. Others will be used for testing and developing. Been thinking about this all day and I think I forgot to mark my partition as active. :P been so long since I used dos. ~theMouse
