       BACKGROUND
       
       When Stacker swaps your drives, it looks for a Windows permanent
       swap file (386SPART.PAR) in the root directory of the drive being
       swapped. If it finds this file, Stacker then looks for the
       Windows directory  to find the SPART.PAR file. If Stacker doesn't
       find it, you see the following message:
       
         SSWAP Warning: Located a Windows permanent swap file on a disk
         to be swapped, but could not find the Windows file, SPART.PAR,
         pointing to it.

       SOLUTION
       
       You'll have to edit the STACKER.INI file on your uncompressed
       boot drive.
       
       To determine the uncompressed boot drive letter:
       
        1. At a DOS prompt, type:
       
               STACKER <Enter>
       
        2. Examine the line that starts with Drive C:.
        3. The STACVOL file name at the end of this line includes the
           uncompressed drive letter (E:\STACVOL.DSK indicates drive E).
            
       To edit the STACKER.INI file:
       
        1. At a DOS prompt, type:
       
               STACINI x: <Enter>
       
           where x is the letter of the uncompressed boot drive.
           The file contains switches, followed by Stacker drive
           specifications. It looks something like this:
       
               /P=1
               /DIR=C:\STACKER
               /RP=2
               C:\STACVOL.DSK,SW
               D:\STACVOL.DSK,SW
       
        2. Use the down arrow to place the cursor at the beginning of
           one of the switch lines (they start with /).
        3. Press ENTER to insert a new line.
        4. Insert the following switch on the new line:
       
               /W-
       
        5. Use CTRL + Z to save the change and exit.
        6. Restart your computer. The error should no longer appear.
