SUMMARY
=======

There is an error in the SETUP.TXT file that is copied into the Windows
directory during installation of Windows 3.1. Under the "Using Stacker" heading,
there is a section that discusses using the SmartDrive disk cache program on an
uncompressed drive. The error reads as follows:

  For example, if the Stacker swap utility swaps drives C and D so that C is
  compressed and D is uncompressed, you would include the following line in
  your CONFIG.SYS file:

  DEVICE=\WINDOWS\SMARTDRV.EXE C- D+

MORE INFORMATION
================

This line should be placed in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file (not in the CONFIG.SYS
file), as follows:

  <drive>:\WINDOWS\SMARTDRV.EXE C- D+

Windows 3.1 loads the SMARTDRV.EXE cache device driver in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
Only the double buffer device driver (if necessary) is loaded in the CONFIG.SYS
file.
