10Q very much, I found your tutorial very xciteing and educational, one of the best I have seen. I bookmarked the tutorial for easy access, That will help me alot in my quest to design an operating system. Yea, i was woundering why i did not see device = himem.sys in my autoexec, its neat that Microsoft decided to automate that process. Thanks so much.

I just got a Microsoft Internet Keyboard pro, so that should keep me from posting messages on the message boards for a while
