Has anyone had this to happen?

Yesterday I was rendering a anim to the PVR drive using the 2.02 ALPHA-NT
update of their software. I came back a few minutes later to check on things
and found that NT had locked up on the LW window. Since there wasn't anything
I could do, I rebooted. I started up the PVR software and it refused to put up
it's window.  Suspecting that the file on the PVR drive was corrupted, I tried
to delete the offending file in File Manager, but could not.  Soon as I access
the ROOT directory, NT crashed!  At this point I opted to reformat the PVR
drive, but how?  Since that facilty is in the PVRecorder that will not run at
this point.

So, I remove the case and move the PVR drive to the machine's SCSI bus to do a
format to wipe all its contents.  That didn't work, even though it was
reformated, the drive's information was still there in File Manager when I put
the PVR drive back on the card!  So I tried a low-level format, oops, there is
no such animal in the Disk Administrator or NT-DOS!  I didn't bother trying a
MS-DOS cmd as I dont know if it would work.  I just took the drive over to my
Amiga and did a low-level there.  I put the drive back on the PVR card, it's
software came up, I formatted the drive and all was well.

I wish in a future update, that DPS make the driver software better to be able
to handle stituations such as the one I had to suffer from :(
