- There are many different parking programs for pc's. But you need to remember
-
- one thing, EXIT WINDOWS BEFORE TURNING OFF THE PC. Windows keeps a couple
- of files open while it's running. If you shut off the pc while windows is
- up, it is possible that those files can become cross-linked and thrash the
- hard disk.
-
- So, to answer your question, there are no *WINDOWS* hard drive park programs.
- But, on simtel, in the disk utilities dir, there are some DOS parking
- programs.

- What about WinPark in ftp.cica.indiana.edu ?
-
- It seems to run OK for Windows 3.0. Is it
- still dangerous ?
