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.
