It was a seperate product that came with Windoze 3.10 well before 6.00 (and no choice whether to use it) Smartdrive caused MAJOR problems, which the drive compression got blamed for. THAT was fun IIRC, there were some changes in some of the partition types, but the 32M ended with 3.30, everything 3.31 and on permitted large drives. Had a few problems, but MOST of the problems that it got blamed for were actually the fault of SMARTDRV! It was a third party program (from Vertisoft after the STAC deal fell through), but there were significant mods to the OS itself to integrate it. Very good. There was also SETVER that let the OS lie about its age. -- Grumpy Ol' Fred cisin(a)xenosoft.com
