I'm a PC novice, so bear with me. My problem is with TOPS and a multi 
partition HD.

I'm curently installing a ZEOS 386 with 2meg RAM, and an ~80meg SCSI HD.
I've tried several different ways of partitioning the HD, and they all
work fine, until I install TOPS.  Then drives D: and E: are no longer
valid.  I've tried reducing TOPS's memory allocation (TOPSKRNL.DAT), and
I've made sure that the expanded memory driver is installed, but to no avail.
Drives D: and E: only become available when I unload tops.

I'm using MS-DOS 3.3, TOPS 2.0, and the ZEOS supplied memory driver, ZEMM.EXE.


Any and all help would be greatly appreciated,
