Message-ID: <1989Aug7.012941.4369@cs.dal.ca> Date: 7 Aug 89 01:29:41 GMT Reply-To: smith@dalcsug.UUCP (Sean Smith) Distribution: na Organization: Math, Stats & CS, Dalhousie University, Halifax, NS, Canada Lines: 26 I just bought a Miniscribe 8450 40 MB hard drive for my Epson Equity I+ (XT-compatable) with a WDC WD1002A-27X controller. My problem is this: how do I get access to the other 8 MB or so of disk space that I have left? I'm running DOS 3.2, which won't let me set up an extended DOS partition. In a word, HELP! I don't read this newsgroup much, so please reply by e-mail. Thanks for any responses I get! Sean P. S.: Thanks to all those who responded to my DOS 640 K barrier posting a while back. It turns out that the problem wasn't memory at all, it was environment size... /--------------------------------------------------------------------------\ | Sean Smith - Damage Inc.
