I am writing a device driver which needs to be written in MSC.  Of course, I
am using a small MASM module to handle the header information and linking to 
the C strategy routine.  Anyway, my problem is that my code segment is being
placed before my data segment, making the driver unrecognizable.  In MASM, I'm
using the .MODEL SMALL,C along with .DATA and .CODE definitions which may be
part of the problem.  Anyone know how I can specify how I want the segments
ordered?  The /a (MASM) option doesn't quite do it right.
