- I've seen the same problems. My system has had ZERO changes installed.
- However, It seemed to start after installing FTP software, here at work.
- And my system at home ONLY has had the update for the IBM506??? (for MFM
- drives) fix installed (early on). The problems at home started weeks after
- I installed the driver fix.
-
- So, I can't corrilate any specific changes that would cause it. Nor, can I
- predict *WHEN* it will occur.
-
- BTW - The only thing I do to continue is wait for the "Not Responding.."
- screen. Things continue fine. (more patient than some, I guess :-)
