Eric,
I again tried putting the fdconfig.sys in drive 'c', first with the
c-oriented version; then with the d-oriented version.
Also tried editing the autoexec.bat in 'd' drive to : "cfg=c:\fdconfig.sys";
everytime I execute autoexec.bat in 'd',
exactly the same thing happens; "action taken apmdos"
