I've figured out that my problem with programs crashing with the message "Can't Demand Load the Applications Segment" (sys2070) is caused by bad blocks on my hpfs drive. Are there any utilities out there (Anywhere, Commercial or shareware or PD) that will check the disk sector by sector and try to loc the clusters out? I really don't want to use the OS/2 Backup command to backup my HD to floppies and re-format the drive, but that is about the only thing I can think of to take care of this problem.

That surprises me - usually HPFS will pop a message stating that "The sector nnnnn is a bad sector, moving data to a better place." (not in these words :) instead of failing to load.. Maybe the above message is generated only during WRITE operations.. -t
