Message-ID: <1990Oct9.145608.23342@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu> Date: 9 Oct 90 14:56:08 GMT Sender: stephenc@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu (Stephen Chung) Organization: Columbia University Lines: 11 Hi, I just got Windows 3.0 up and running. However, when I was running some programs in a DOS window (such as mapmem), it comes back with a "Device sharing error in drive C" and I have to abort the program and go back to the DOS window prompt. It happens also when I am trying to run "WIN /R" in a DOS window (you guys said that I can do it :=>) and it came back with the same device sharing error. Any pointers? Please reply to this account. Thanks. - Stephen
