Well, I overstate. but it is making my life annoying. Okay, fine. I try running the elysdemo.zip I got on wuarchive. I decompress the thing, and it starts putting out hidden files, and such. okay, no problem. then it locks up my computer when I try to run it, I believe. So, I reboot. hard disk write protected. I get this every now and then, thouroughly annoying stuff. So, I try to correct it. However, the directy I put the elysdemo in is now getting errors. Scheck /f C: says, 'erase this directory' and run scheck again. chkdsk /f C: hits the directory and locks up. Norton disk doctor tries to fix the directory and fails, saying 'Still cannot read directory after moving'. So, I have this bad directory. sucks to be me. I think I'm going to deinstall stacker ----- it's usually safe and reliable, but the defrag procedure takes _forever_, and there are too many shareware programs that when run, barf all over stacker, forcing me to scheck and junk to fix things in my hard disk to get stacker to stabilize. does stacker 3.0 have any of these problems? - Frank Wang
