This is somewhat odd. Any idea what app is generating the Unicode
message?

I really don't know. I'd have to go with Sandy's ideas on this. I would
say you could test this by REM'ing out the IFS, but you've already tried
this.

The fact that the pause message generated by the call statement I had you
insert occurs after the 35 second delay implies the delay is caused by
some statement in config.sys, but you've already tried disabling them all,
so the test results are puzzling to say the least. It's not yet obvious
to me why you are having so much trouble isolating the delay to a specific
statement.

The run statements run in parallel with with config.sys processing. They
can slow the system down, but they should not stop all other processing.

Regards,

Steven
