 Hi. I've used hyperdisk for window 3.0 setting "write-back without delay".
When I was trying to run a shareware, my system was hang up. I rebooted
system again and then run window3.0. But half of "..GRP" files was broken.
So I made broken .GRP files again taking much tiring time. At that time,
I had no idea on those broken files. I got the same problem two times more.
I took hyperdisk from config.sys and switch to smartdrv. I wanted to know if
those problems occured or not under smartdrv. No problem!! 
I can't make sure that this means smartdrv.sys is safer that hyperdisk.
But I don't want to use hyperdisk any more because making whole GRP files again
made me crazy.

Thanks.

Choi
