    The other issue is that DOS partitioning wastes a huge amount of space if the patitions are (to it) quite large. I often found myself breaking up a drive that the OS could probably handle as-is into 4 or 5 partitions to cut back on wasted space.

    In fact, its probably because, if you doesnt want to waste space, you need to create and format all the partitions before installing MSDOS and Win95/98 or Windows XP. Before Windows 7 you cant manage disk space under Windows.. from memory. Better to think it before.

    I had trouble with was PC-Write and, for that matter, Wordperfect 5 for

    Odd, I don't remember having an issue with WordPerfect 5.1 and DV, but maybe I just didn't use them together... which is hard to imagine ;). Maybe one day I'll be curious enough to try this.
