JM>Forgive the ignornace, but what is the 2GBFIX and why is it needed for doors?

Nah, no ignorance there. :)

2GBFIX.COM is a tiny little TSR program that will fool a DOS program
into thinking it's running on a 2.1GB hard drive when it's really
running on something much bigger, in my case, a 40GB partition on the
320GB hard drive that is in my BBS machine.  There is also a fix to
2GBFIX.COM on Hobbes (http://hobbes.nmsu.edu; the world's largest OS/2
archive, but this program will run under Win95-WinXP also) that allows
more granular control over how that number is reported.

In nerdspeak, 2GBFIX fools the program by reporting back a positive
integer for the DOS OS call for the size of the hard drive.  If it's
larger than 2.1GB, the 16-bit integer will overflow with a negative
result causing the program, if it check for such things, not to run.

Some doors will not run right for one reason or another if the HD size
is reported as being larger than 2.1GB.  None of my DOS-based doors I
develop check, so they will run fine on pretty much any system.

Hope that clears things up a bit. :)

Later,
Sean
