I've been asked to post this question to the next concerning Norton
Utilities and a 1.2 gig SCSI drive:

Has anyone had trouble using SpeedDisk on a drive of this size?  The
drive is in a 486 33Mzh EISA with 15 megs of extended RAM running QEMM
v6.02.  It has effectivly 870K of usable DOS memory but whenever there
is more than 500 megs on the drive, SpeedDisk breaks with an "Out of 
memory loading file".

Talking to Symetic hasn't helped, and neither has different setups in
the config.sys, etc...  Does anyone have any other suggestions of
what to try?

Please e-mail and if there is interest, I'll post a summary.

Thanks!
