	I'm not so sure about that.  I have Microsoft CP/M version 2.20B
and it works great in my ROM 1 gs w/ the MS Softcard in slot 5 (gs on slow
speed of course).

	Perhaps his disk is corrupted in a way that allows a
semi-functional environment.  Whomever originated this post (I forgot who
it was) if you want to email me a copy of your version 2.20B and I'll test
it with my softcard to see if that might be the problem I'd be happy to.

	For what it is worth, I didn't test the 13-sector version, so if
that's the one you're using, let me know so I can test that one too
--haven't used BOOT13 in years.
