I just went to the above-named URL and downloaded the DEMO.EXE program
for DOS. When I attempted to run it I just got a black screen having
many white vertical lines. My machine suffered a total lockup and I had
to perform a cold re-boot. Also I got five lost clusters in five chains.
Did anyone else have a bad experience with it?
Take care,
Sam Heywood
