Just recently installed Power Quest Drive Image Pro 5.0. When the
computer was booted to DOS to make an image file an error message was
displayed stating "unable to start VFloppy.sys press any key to boot to
active partition". Now whenever the computer is started, this error
message is displayed. I assume this has been written to the MBR. If
Fdisk /MBR is run to rewrite the MBR, will my current setup be
compromised?

Cheers,
Alan Priol.
