Well, I got the 1.4 setup program yesterday, and it didn't do a damn bit of good. I configured my hard disk with a factory-fresh System Folder, and booted up. Fine. Then I choose Shut Down. Fine. Then I reboot. BooM! My drive's been trashed! I gota a useful bit of info from upl@puff.wisc.edu (Future Unix Gurus) -- Mr. Hammen warned me not to use DiskExpress 1.05 of earlier on any hard disk that I value; he says he's been using a Jasmine 80 with Apple's setup software and DiskExpress 1.1 with no problems. I just got the new DiskExpress, so I'll try using it. The question I have is: why does the problem persist even after the drive's been formatteed multiple times? Will running the newer DiskExpress solve the problem? I'll try it, since I have nothing to lose. --Rich
