SYMPTOMS
========
If you install the MS-DOS Upgrade on a machine running Dell DOS version 3.3, you
may be unable to access all your partitions after you upgrade your computer.
WORKAROUND
==========
If you have already installed the MS-DOS Upgrade and you cannot see all your
partitions, restart your computer with the Uninstall disk in drive A to
uninstall MS-DOS.
To work around this problem, back up your data, repartition your hard disk drive,
install the MS-DOS upgrade, and then restore your data.
For specific instructions on repartitioning your hard disk drive without losing
data, see the "Repartitioning Your Hard Disk" section in following article in
