Yes I have but thanks for reminding me, since I lost the bookmark to it and forgot the name. Profiting from DOOM is one of my weaknesses. I do not perform well on the bear side of the market and really welcome the support when it is given. As you know, I usually exit a stock and wait for a lower entry point as the retracement occurs. I rarely play the down side (Puts, Shorts, Selling Calls, etc.). To be effective, this strategy has to become a part of the whole picture and I need to get comfortable with it.
BTW-To All-I think I may have figured out my recent hard disk problem.
Remember that I said I was getting RUNAUI.DDL, Window exception errors, Fatal OE errors, system lock ups , etc ??? The system has been stripped down to the necessary Win95 drivers for the integrated peripherals and the add in boards along with just Win95, Office95, and etscap 4.04 with the same results. After reformatting the 1.6Gig drive and loading the identical stuff on it within the same box (disconnecting the higher capacity drive), I cannot repeat the problem. As frustrating as it was, I got a private email from someone who said that WDC drives are not as great as I might think over the 1.6Gig model and have a high failure rate. I decided to check out the drive itself. I couldn't find a problem and used the WDC technical support for the 4th time with no resolution. Turns out they have some diagnostic software on the Web which I ran and found no issues. Then it hit me. The 1.6 and new high capacity drive are different in one other respect. I am partitioned with only one partition using Fat32 for the larger drive instead of FAT16 like on the 1.6 Gig drive. SO,
I take the system down tomorrow night for who knows how long to reformat and reset up the system using FAT16 to see if the problems go away. But before I do, does anyone have any experience with the new Win95 FAT32 being used to create one large partition???
Thanks
