I read some of the HyperDisk documentation; it made me nervous. Does anyone have this running smoothly in EMS on a 386 with QEMM and a large IDE drive? It's the IDE part which worries me a bit. I don't usually get nervous easily, but the part about "don't install without a full backup no matter how standard your system is" worried me. I don't presently have the resources for a full backup. -- Kevin Martin sigma@ipl.rpi.edu "Can I kiss one of the bridesmaids instead?"
