How does SpinRite compare to ScanDisk?

GRC | SpinRite 6.0 FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
SpinRite and ScanDisk are entirely different types of products. ScanDisk replaces the original DOS CHKDSK command, which verified the logical file system structure of the hard drive (the newer CHKDSK command no longer performs that function). Microsoft created ScanDisk because people were switching off their computers without first exiting Windows. This resulted in corruption of the file system.

Why am I having problems using USB with my Compaq Presario, or HP Pavilion computer?

ACT LABS - Product FAQ Answers
The budget line of Compaq and HP computers integrate many components onto the system mainboard. As a result of this, some components may share IRQ resources with the USB Ports. In most cases this is never a problem, however if a Modem or LAN card share an IRQ with the USB controller, it will cause communication difficulties between the Force RS and the USB port. This may cause "Blue Screen of Death" to appear when Windows starts up, or the Force RS may simply not be detected by the system.

Go Back to List of Questions Why was I charged multiple times?

Frequently Asked Questions - Acnevention
Almost with 100% certainty you were not, but people sometimes think they were charged more than once. More than likely, you probably were not. Did you make one or more FAILED attempts at processing an order? Every time you attempt to process an order, even if it fails, (because you put the wrong corresponding zip code or shipping method etc.), the credit card company "authorizes" your credit card for the full amount. This is not a charge, only a reduction of the available credit.

Will TNOS run on a PC with a 8088 or 80286 processor. ?

TNOS Installation
It will run, but only if you use a stripped down version (less features compiled in), and have almost NO drivers, etc loaded into memory. TNOS must exist in conventional memory, and on processors earlier than a 386, you had no support in the CPU for altering memory maps to maximize the conventional memory. I ran TNOS on a 286 for several years, I just needed a good "shoehorn" to get in what features I needed." So there you go.
