The error message “Microsoft Windows 32-bit disk driver (WDCTRL) phase 03, 3f” appears when you open Windows.
∙A device conflict occurs between Microsoft Windows 32-bit access and the EZ-Drive driver. To resolve the conflict and enable 32-bit access, follow the instructions in the “Windows 32-bit disk access” section on page 16.
Disabling EZ-Drive
∙You can remove the EZ-Drive boot information from the boot sector of Drive C. In doing so, you may lose access to the files on your EZ-Drive installed drive. Before you disable EZ-Drive, we recommend that you back up your files. To disable EZ- Drive:
1.Insert a bootable diskette in the diskette drive and boot the computer. Do not open the diskette drive door to load the EZ-Drive installed drive.
2.Insert a diskette with FDISK.
3.Type fdisk/mbr. This command erases the EZ-Drive in- struction in the boot record on Drive C and restores the original DOS master boot record. The files on your drive are not affected. However, you can no longer access the EZ-Drive installed drive with EZ-Drive. To make the drive available, you must repartition and reformat it using an- other method. Any files written to the drive are erased during the repartition and reformat.
