It's in compatability mode; I'm running Windoze '95 in another partition. The problem appeared on one of my co-worker's system soon after installing the PAO stuff, so we're wondering if there are any known problems with PAO vs. Libretto. Meanwhile I can't seem to recover the disk (fortunately after the first time I started doing checkpoint backups - unfortunately you have to have a bootable system with a clean file system to do a restore. Sigh...) and was wondering if anyone else had found a way around this.
