I don't think my original posting made it out, but if it did, I apologize for 
the duplication.

Two questions:

(1) Has anyone else had problems running Defender of the Crown on a machine 
    with Mega ROMS?  It used to be fine on my 1040 (except for a few trying 
    moments when it told me my master disk was a copy!), but crashes early and
    often on my new Mega 4.

(2) On a more serious note, the other night I had a Degas format file somehow 
    turn into what the system thought was a folder.  I think I was using
    Neodesk's quick rename feature at the time but cannot be sure as the 
    problem has not resurfaced.  Anyway, this "file/folder" loaded properly 
    as the desktop background for Neodesk, but all system programs and other 
    utilities (GEM desktop, Neodesk desktop,item selector, DCOPY, etc.) treated
    it as a folder.  Opening the "folder" showed it empty, but all all attempts
    to delete the thing failed.  I ended up saving everything but the bad file
    to floppy, zeroed my hard disk partition, and restored.  Has anyone else
    had something like this happen to them?  Can anyone tell me how to manually
    edit (with a sector editor) the partition's directory entries to simply 
    turn the folder attribute (if there is such) off?

    BTW:  Neodesk is a must have desktop replacement for hard disk users.
          I like to compare its usefulness to the Universal Item Selector.
          You don't realize how much you like/depend on it until you have to 
          use a machine that doesn't have it.  I am in no way affiliated with
          the makers of Neodesk except as a satisfied customer.
