How can I prevent the system from showing the full screen error msg
when I try to read from some floppy drive which is empty. This is of
course under PM. Thank you.

When I feel myself slowing down , I know for sure that I've been
here before, 'cause if it isn't an action replay, what else could it be.

Or if you write your own application, you should set BIT 13 in the open mode flag. Mikael Wahlgren d9mikael@dtek.chalmers.se

The command is AUTOFAIL=YES and it should be placed in the C:\CONFIG.sys file after a reboot, then all Hard Errors (e.g., Trap D's ) will be automatically failed. That is, the HARDERR process will not put up the HARD ERROR popup. Instead a Trap message is send to stderr. Ralph Yozzo
