I have successfully updated the virus definitions for f-prot and McAfee antivirus , but i have the following problem: when I launch the antivirus I cannot access my harddrives , i can only access drives A,B,Q,T.
Please,can you tell me how can I gain access to my harddrives , which are NTFS ?
Thank you.

Did you enable the NTFS module when booting into FreeDOS? By default, to
conserve memory, the NTFS module is not loaded.

i do the following :
ASPIUSB not enabled
CD-ROM enabled
KEYBOARD enabled
LFN not enabled
NTFS enabled
FDPAdm not enabled
Drives are recognized.
After that i issue "dir" command and after few lines :
DIVIDE ERROR , STACK F4CC 52A3 0246 0000 16BB 3928 6644 52A3
0000 0800 0000 0000 002C
I launch McAfee ,starts correctly and after that:
TSF32:prev_tsf32 80C8
SS 208 DS 208 ES 208 FS 0 GS 20
EAX 98D13C EBX F6D1F4 ECX 98D13C EDX 0

CS:IP 200:F000B07A ID 06 COD 98D13C FLG 10202
CS= 200 , USE32 , page granular limit FFFFFFFF base 0 acc CF9B

Fprot starts correctly but freezes after few files scanned.
