That was me, Chad, not Mark :-)

The two problem areas that come to mind were SciTech Display Doctor, and
the Wipe function of Norton Utilities.  Both would cause EMM386 to halt
the system, or crash, no matter what I tried.  I can't remember what
exactly I tired, However, it has been too long :-)

Recently, after switching the boot scsi adapter in another computer,
Norton wipe crashes again.  Let me explain further, both scsi adapter
have been installed, I just switched the setup to boot from the
Differential SCSI adapter, instead of the Single Ended one.  This is
under PCDOS 7, However.  I am not worried about it, However.  The setup
is probably going to get changed again anyways :-)
