This is right from the rawrite doc:


This program uses well-documented generic low-level DOS and BIOS
functions. It should run on nearly every PC in existance.  PS/2's should
be able to run RaWrite but this has not been tested.

With the NT HAL ( Hardware abstraction layer) this would cause a
problem.
