- One more time - EMM386.SYS loads _by itself_, without config.sys entry, but
- I can't find out why, although I assume it's because of the SSTOR drives.. I
- can't get rid of it...

- (I may have to wipe the disk and reboot with QEMM.SYS, and THEN try using
- SSTOR, but it's more work than I want to take on right now.)
