I've got the sam problem, but only with **one** application -- Shiva's
NetSerial. When I attempt to access the NetSerial modem on my SE/20
(2.5 MB), it goes into the continious diskacess cycle. When I exit
VersaTerm (my NetSerial application), the accesses stop. This also
happens on a coworker's SE/20 (same memory, same vintage), but not
on the local MacWizard's 5 MB II.
