I have a couple of questions that maybe someone can answer.

1)  I have access to a Compaq 386/20e.  This Compaq seems to have a problem
    when exiting out of applications, as it will show an empty screen for
    approximately 15 seconds, before returning to the DOS prompt.  Does
    anyone have any ideas what I can use to check this puppy out?

2)  I have always wondered why CHKDSK, when used with the /F parameter,
    creates FILE0000.CHK files in the root directory.  Can anyone give me
    a good explanation of this?

This should be interesting!
