[comp.windows.ms] Disk Manager + SMARTDRV.SYS fix

kelly@athena.mit.edu (Kevin A. Kelly) (10/15/90)

A few months ago there was a discussion of the incompatibility
between Disk Manager (disk partitioning software) and
SMARTDRV.SYS (MS-Windows disk cache).  Did anyone ever come up 
with a fix, work around, or other solution to the problem?

Thanks,
Kevin Kelly [kelly@athena.mit.edu]

Well one well known workaround would be to use the shareware HyperDisk
caching program which like SMARTDRV.SYS is Windows 3.0 aware and will
surrender all or part of it memory usage when used with Windows. It is
available in the MSWIN library section of Compuserve among other
places.
