pardon me while I climb up on my soap box ......
Inevidebly(sp) almost every problem ( except 2) I've had in the past six
months I've solved by taking smartdrive off the affected systems.  At least
out of the config.sys - If absoluted needed I leave it in autoexec.bat.
I've been  
- unable to load and run codeview until removing smartdrive
- lost massive amounts of sectors/clusters on three machines
- been unable to switch batch files and reboot - the cache isn't flushed-
  sometimes for as long as 5 secs(this is configurable though)
- smartdrive and scsi's get along sooooo wellll ( even with double buffers )
   NOT!
- been unable to use a cd-rom until smartdrive moved to autoexec.bat
(the above is not exclusive and represents my opinions and not those of
UT or my employer)
thankyou.......
