This isn't a big deal or anything, but I can't get QBASIC (and, hence, EDIT) to
run on this T1000 laptop of mine!  It has no hard drive, so I installed the DOS
to four 3.5" floppies.  After the program loads, the drive stops spinning and
just sits there, requiring a reboot.  Anyone else have this problem? 

This is IBM's DOS I'm using.  Fortunately, this is NOT my main PC-compatible! 
I'm just curious about why I'm having this problem.  :-)
