The first problem I have had is the FATAL SYSTEM ERROR that was documented in PC Week. That has only happened to me once. The other problem I have had is when I was in DOS I tried to do a DIR. DOS told me that I had a bad FAT table. I switch disks and guess what, it too had a bad FAT table. I rebooted my system and everything was fine. This happened to me again about a week latter on a different machine. This concerns me because of the potential problem with people who have a hard disk. I was using a PC Portable (not convertible), 2 5 1/4" floppys, IBM 3278/9 Emulator card, 256K memory and 3 1/2" floppy. When my error happened I was not running the control program or any other resident utility. Just plain DOS. I also was working on an IBM PC with 2 5 1/4" floppys and 640K. I was not running any resident programs. Well if anyone else has had this last problem please let me know. Or if anyone else has had any problems with DOS 3.2 send me a note. Thank You, John
