    Sorry, pressed the wrong button. :(

    As I was saying, I tried to load the Guest driver high, and it wouldn't. Then I tried to manually load the ASPIPPM1.SYS driver in CONFIG.SYS, but it reported no connection. I want more memory for other purposes. :\

    I could use the PalmZip driver, but it is unreliable: it works sometimes but not always. I have it working on the DOS laptop, and it doesn't always work. :(
