Norton 4.5 works fine with Compaq MS-DOS 3.31, and PC-DOS 4.x both of which
allow greater than 32 meg partitions. So I'd guess that the DOS you are
using is too non-standard to be supported by Norton. I'd suggest switching
to Compaq's MS-DOS 3.31. They're a big enough company that their version
of DOS gets supported.
