Alright, I'll use NWCACHE (instead of UIDE) for a couple of weeks. If I notice anything different, I'll report back. This is the command line: C:\DRDOS\nwcache.exe /DELAY=555 /BL=16 And this is the message: +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Cache size: 7670 KB (XMS) | | Minimum cache size: 2048 KB | | Write-through drives: A B | | Delayed write drives: C D | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Current options: | | /MU Program is loaded into upper memory | | /BL=16 Lookahead buffer is in conventional memory, size is in KB | | /LEND=ON Lend memory to other applications - 5622 KB available | | /DELAY=555 Write delay is enabled, time is in milliseconds | | /FLUSH=ON Flush delayed writes before returning the prompt | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Marcos -------------------------------------- Marcos Fávero Florence de Barros Campinas, Brazil ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
