If you say so. However as i've already said... Dos 6.22 could not support long filenames. Only 8.3 filenames. So Dos 7.0 was needed. Seeing as you've proven you're not all too bright, heres some other details to clarify my point: http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000481.htm http://www.ctyme.com/msdos7.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MS-DOS Windows 95 through ME needed Dos 7, Dos 8, etc... now some say the NT Kernel isn't built on top of Dos and others say it is. No *real* way to prove it and i'm sure it's not something M$ would be too quick to admit. However, if NT is not loaded on top of DOS, then how come autoexec.bat and config.sys were not removed, but instead, hidden in the Windows directory and changed to autoexec.nt and config.nt? :-) -- .---------------------------------------------------------------. | [TiME WaRRiOR] aka [Dave Kelso] AIM: Twar782 | +o Malkavia BBS | | www : synchsupport.net - malkaviabbs.com - xpresit.net | | www$: josephsjewelersonline.com - preferedinsurance.com | | @: time.warrior@malkaviabbs. com | \______________________________________________________________/ --- Synchronet 3.12a-Win32 NewsLink 1.76 * Malkavia - Chicago, IL - telnet://malkaviabbs.com --- Synchronet 3.12b-Win32 NewsLink 1.83 .
