I had a very similar sort of problem, when an executable heavily used the HD. Sometimes an error occurred like this: the HD lamp went on for a few seconds and afterwards DOS popped up with a drive read error or something, but it refused to accept any answer to the (r)etry (a)bort (i)gnore question. In any case the machine froze requiring a hard boot. - Thomas greve AT rs1 DOT thch DOT uni-bonn DOT de greve AT boss1 DOT physik DOT uni-bonn DOT de unt145 AT dbnrhrz1
