Hi Jeff,

I guess you meant PQPM 3.05.xxx [final OS/2 version was 3.05.302].
I do have my own copy here, but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't help you 
overcome those problems. What I'd suggest you use is DFSEE ;-)  That can 
accomplish all the same MBR/partition manipulations (with a few 
exceptions) and has a feature to just wipe e.g. the MBR/partition table 
and an additional 10MB or so at the beginning of the disk. It will also 
highlight incompatible/incorrectly set up partitions.
There are trial versions on (author Jan van Wijk's site) www.dfsee.com. 
There is a DFSEE support group on Yahoo Tech groups. ;-)

Another [AU!] option is the Graham Utilities - www.warpspeed.com.au
