These are classified as "dirty" or "deadly" TSRs. MORE INFORMATION ================ "Dirty" TSRs or device drivers are known to cause problems in Setup, but not necessarily to cause it to stop responding (hang). If Setup detects a dirty TSR or device driver, it warns you that there may be problems and recommends that you disable the TSR or device driver before you continue. You can often continue Setup without disabling the TSR or device driver. "Deadly" TSRs or device drivers are known to cause Setup to hang. If Setup detects a deadly TSR or device driver, Setup stops and instructs you to disable the TSR or device driver, restart your computer, and then run Setup again. You cannot continue until the TSR or device driver is disabled. The following tables list known dirty and deadly TSRs and device drivers that are detected by Setup: Dirty TSRs and Device Drivers ----------------------------------------------------- Allemm4.sys All Charge 386 Anarkey.com Anarkey Append.com MS-DOS APPEND Utility Asplogin.exe ASP Integrity Toolkit Assign.com MS-DOS ASSIGN Utility Cache.exe Disk Cache Utility Ced.com CED Command Line Editor Ced.exe PCED Command Line Editor Cmdedit.com Command Line Editor Cubitr.exe Cubit Datamon.exe PC Tools Datamon Desktop.exe PC Tools Desktop TSR Diskmon.exe Norton Disk Monitoring TSR Doscue.com DOSCUE Command Line Editor Dubldisk.sys Double Disk Data Compression Utility Ecyddx.sys IBM PC Support Eimpcs.sys IBM PC Support Ems386.sys Memory Manager Ep.exe Norton Desktop/Windows Erase Protect TSR Flash.exe Flash Disk Cache Utility Graphics.com MS-DOS GRAPHICS Utility Hpemm386.sys HP Expanded Memory Manager Hpemm486.sys HP Expanded Memory Manager Hpmm.sys HP Memory Manager Hyper286.exe Hyper Disk Cache Utility Hyper386.exe Hyper Disk Cache Utility Hyperdkc.exe Hyper Disk Cache Utility Hyperdke.exe Hyper Disk Cache Utility Hyperdkx.exe Hyper Disk Cache Utility Iemm.sys Memory Manager Ilim386.sys Intel Expanded Memory Emulator Join.exe MS-DOS JOIN Utility Kbflow.exe KBFlow TSR by Artisoft Lansel.exe Lansight Network Utilities TSR Le.com Le Menu Menuing Package Lsallow.exe Lansight Network Utilities TSR Melemm.386 Memory Manager Ncache.exe Norton Disk Cache Utility Ncache2.exe Norton Utilities NCache Ndosedit.com Command Line Editor Newres.exe Newspace Disk Compression Utility Newspace.exe Newspace Disk Compression Utility Pa.exe Printer Assist Pc-cache.com PC Tools Disk Cache Utility Pc-kwik.exe PC-Kwik Disk Cache Utility Pcpanel.exe LaserTools Printer Control Panel Pcsxmaem.sys PCSXMAEM Utility Print.exe MS-DOS PRINT Utility Pyro.exe Pyro!
