SUMMARY

Golden Bow Systems, Inc. has confirmed that VFeature Deluxe partitioning software is not compatible with the Microsoft MS-DOS 5 or later Upgrade.

MORE INFORMATION

VFeature Deluxe uses the following device driver in the CONFIG.SYS file:

   device=c:\fixt_drv.sys
                

VFeature Deluxe does not operate properly with MS-DOS 5.0 or later. To work around this incompatibility, do the following:

  1. Back up all necessary data on the hard drive.
  2. Repartition the hard drive with the MS-DOS 5.0 or later Fdisk command.
  3. Format the hard disk. For example, at the command prompt, type the following command:

    format c: /s
