The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: When the hard drive becomes full he is having two peculiar situations:
1.      He is unable to bring up WP51. It says "please wait" loading endlessly. This should come up with some kind of error message.
2.      When doing functions (for example saving a simple DOS text file) it says "please wait" endlessly. This does work when he clears some more room on the hard drive. But again, it should come up with some kind of error message instead of just saying please wait endlessly. Solutions: Depending upon how full the disk is WP will lock up because it can't create virtual files. DOS may also be having problems with file management as the WP.FIL file is opened to load menu's and overlays.
