If yer not, try searching for threads with 100+ messages on this topic on google. Nothing new will be added here, --any correct answer will be swamped in garbage, so there is no need for others to answer if this is mere a ``mock troll'' (hint: wrong info has already been posted in *all* the answers that have shown up on my server). And get involved with the freedos project if you really want the world to have a really a good dos. CC reading in comp.os.msdos.desqview
