Sender: owner-opendos AT mail DOT tacoma DOT net


I have a wierd problem with chkdsk.

If I check drive D: (540mb disk, LBA format (I think))
EMM386 crashes (gpf in task 'V86-root', sometimes the gpf handler causes a gpf).

This only seems to happen when I have smartdrv running.

Does anyone else have this happen to them?

I use smartdrv (from windows 3.11) because it seems to be more efficient
than NWcache.

If I boot clean, there are no problems with D: at all, chkdsk and Norton work
perfectly.
