SYMPTOMS
========
According to Quarterdeck, MS-DOS version 5.0's RAMDRIVE.SYS and SMARTDRV.SYS may
fail to load if they are placed after the line that loads QEMM 50/60's or QRAM's
driver QEXT.SYS in the CONFIG.SYS file.
WORKAROUND
==========
To work around this problem, modify the CONFIG.SYS file so that both lines that
load RAMDRIVE.SYS and SMARTDRV.SYS appear before the line that loads QEXT.SYS.
MORE INFORMATION
================
An updated version of QEXT.SYS is available that corrects this problem. It is
available on the Quarterdeck bulletin board service (BBS) or from Quarterdeck
Technical Support. Contact Quarterdeck for more information.
