Just thought I'd toss this one in to confuse everyone even further.  WCII
*ATE* my hard drive WITHOUT stacker loaded (in fact, I've never used stacker
in my life).  I was just flying along, and all of a sudden it bombed, and
put up a C:\> prompt in the graphics mode.  When I rebooted and ran NDD,
LOTS of stuff on my HD was destroyed beyond recognition.

Only other things I was running that I thought might could cause problems
was QEMM and HyperDisk.

Go figure.
