My SyQuest SyJet cartridge drive has worked for years under BIOS 
control, but hangs when I attempt to operate it with the ASPI 
manager (ASPI8DOS.sys) and either the SyQuest (SQDRIVER.sys) or 
Adaptec (ASPIDISK.sys) device drivers. 

Does anyone know anything specific about DR-DOS 7.03 and SqQuest 
SCSI driver, particularly about the RCS.ZIP patch (see below) in 
the SyQuest readme file. 

Tks, Gary

9. DR DOS 

   SQDRIVER.SYS has many problems with DR DOS 5.0.  We do not 
   recommend you installing our driver under it.  With DR DOS 6.0, if 
   volume(s) on your SyQuest drive were installed by the built-in 
   driver and then taken over by our driver, you must load a patch 
   file from Digital Research.  You can download the patch file RCS.ZIP 
   from SyQuest BBS (510) 656-0473. 


   Without installing the patch, you can not change cartridges.
