When I was trying to run a shareware, my system was hang up. I rebooted system again and then run window3.0. But half of "..GRP" files was broken. So I made broken .GRP files again taking much tiring time. At that time, I had no idea on those broken files. I got the same problem two times more. I took hyperdisk from config.sys and switch to smartdrv. I wanted to know if those problems occured or not under smartdrv. No problem!! I can't make sure that this means smartdrv.sys is safer that hyperdisk. But I don't want to use hyperdisk any more because making whole GRP files again made me crazy. Thanks. Choi
