I run it. It turned out did not work with my computer. So I deleted all the files and subdirectories. But I found 5MB of my disk space was gone. Dosshell 4.01 shows there is no directory left. I went to Norton. I can see the directories still exist. But I can not get into these directories. A real directory will allow me to enter even if it is empty. You can see from the right panel of the Norotn that it is empty. But these deleted directories won't let you do that. Using Norton sd command I can see a big chunk of my C: disk is marked with X which means unmovable. How can I remove this chunk? I am running out my disk space. I lost a total of 15MB since I tried three times to install. Help please. Thank you very. Xia, Xinfu Dept of Physics SUNY at Buffalo 716-636-3070
