                                 ABOUT BACKUPS 
 
          You probably  make  backups of  your  data regularly.    (At 
          least, we  hope you do.  If you don't, you certainly should. 
          We say this from personal experience; disaster can strike at 
          any time.) 
 
          Some backup programs access your hard disk in a non-standard 
          way, bypassing normal DOS processing.   Such backup programs 
          are inherently less  safe than  those that follow  published 
          standards, and will not work  with NewSpace.  PC-Fullbak and 
          Back-It  are  two  such  programs  that  do  not  work  with 
          NewSpace. 
 
          Backup programs that  follow published  standards, and  that 
          don't bypass  normal DOS  processing, such  as Fastback  and 
          Fastback Plus (for backing up to diskette) and Tecmar's QIC- 
          60  (for  backing up  to  tape),  will work  very  well with 
          NewSpace.    Also, the  BACKUP  command  of  DOS works  with 
          NewSpace. 
 
          Tecmar's QT-type tape backup systems can be  made to operate 
          in either a non-standard way or in  a standard way.  To make 
          these systems operate  in the standard way  (compatibly with 
          NewSpace), specify  "Other" in  the "NETWORK"  field on  the 
          options panel (whether you  actually are using a  network or 
          not). 
 
 
                      BEFORE YOU RUN THE COMPRESS PROGRAM 
 
          If  you  are using  a file  facility  program, such  as File 
          Facility, dPATH, or EasyPath, then  you should deactivate it 
          while you run  the (one-time) COMPRESS program.   Otherwise, 
          COMPRESS  may  not be  able to  find  and compress  all your 
          files. 
 
 
                        FOR OWNERS OF JRAM MEMORY BOARDS 
 
          The JET program by Tall Tree Systems uses a non-standard DOS 
          interface, and is therefore incompatible with NewSpace. 
 
          However,  the  JRAM boards,  and  the software  that manages 
          these boards, are compatible with NewSpace. 
 
 
                             FOR OWNERS OF XtreePro 
 
          XtreePro sometimes accesses  DOS in a non-standard  way that 
          is incompatible with NewSpace.   In order to change  the way 
          that XtreePro works,  start XtreePro  with the command  line 
          option  /LS,  or  use  XtreePro's configuration  program  to 
          specify that the  "Standard" disk  logging method should  be 
          used. 
 
 
                                      NOTE 
 
          NewSpace   doesn't   currently  work   in   a  multi-tasking 
          environment  such as  Windows, DESQview,  or TopView.   In a 
          networking environment such  as IBM's  PC Network,  NewSpace 
          doesn't currently work  on the file  server or servers,  but 
          can be used to compress data on the workstations' hard disks.


                     IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM RUNNING UNINSTALL

          Certain  resident  programs  prevent   NewSpace's  UNINSTALL
          program from working properly.  If  you try to run UNINSTALL
          and  have any  problems, boot  your system  from a  bootable
          floppy disk with no resident  programs (not even the  NEWRES
          program  that normally  activates  NewSpace), and  then  run
          UNINSTALL again.
