Hello, Daniela.
-=> Replying to a message of Daniela Engert to Sean Dennis:
SD>> I was using SUPRESSPOPUPS=C in my CONFIG.SYS to supress popup error

Thank you for the information. I was using 'SUPPRESSPOPUPS=C' before... I
guess I must've erased something along the way in my CONFIG.SYS.
Also, I wanted to extend a personal thank-you for writing that wonderful
device driver (DANIS506.ADD)... it solved a very perplexing and annoying
problem that I was having with my D: drive. I have a Samsung 2.1GB HD that
would constantly shut itself off after one minute of inactivity. I shut off
all power management in the BIOS and OS/2 with no success. I was extremely
frustrated for quite some time, as if someone was on my BBS, the drive could
take up to a full 15-30 seconds to start spinning up again, causing the caller
to wait. It was very annoying to me.
I then noticed that you'd written your alternative .ADD and decided to give it
a shot. I installed it, rebooted... lo and behold-the drive didn't spin down
on me anymore! Plus, I got a slightly faster response time too, which was an
added benefit. So, needless to say, I'm very pleased and grateful that you
wrote that. Once again, thanks!
Later,
Sean
