It mounts floppies, removables, and hard drives up to 9GB and seamlessly access DOS and Windows directories and files from DOS disks. Unlike any other file interchange utility, DOS Mounter98 provides bi-directional transfer capabilities so files returned to the PC retain their Windows95 long filenames and extended Mac filenames are automatically truncated to standard 31 characters. The full version includes a formatter capable of formatting in HFS, HFS+, and DOS. You can even create multiple partitions of Mac and DOS on the same disk. The full version is available from Software Architects, Inc. at www.softarch.com. This demo is good for 21 days. Its only functional piece is a control panel. Trash it when the trial period is over. Removable media drives must use DOS Mounter's driver. Temporarily disable other driver extensions (i.e. Iomega Driver).
