  9.      NOTE: If DE is having trouble reading a particular drive in your
  10. system, I would be most greatful if you would do a few things for me!
  11. 1.) Make a print-out of this file.
  12. 2.) Use a REAL program to help fill in as many blanks of this form as
  13.     possible.
  14. 3.) If possible, send me a copy of the disks boot sector (sector 0).
  15.     This can be a printed copy or a binary copy on a floppy disk.
  16. 4.) And mail them to me.
  17. Just before I started recoding DE to handle large drives and files, I had
  18. a 5.3 Gigabyte hard drive installed in my system. Is partitioned into
  19. (2) 2 Gigabyte drives and (1) 1 Gigabyte drive. Drive manufacturers use
  20. some crazy schemes in order to get DOS to recognize these large drives.
  21. Had to create a SAFE_DIVIDE routine to handle some of the calcs that you
  22. see with <Shift-F6> DskStat. Was getting "Divide Overflow" messages from
  23. DOS and program crashes. It could be that I've overlooked another place
  24. in the code that needs SAFE_DIVIDE or the like. Thanks!
