Yes. On many modern systems and/or disks it's causing more problems than
it claimed to solve. PC hardware expects to see a disk with a DOS-style
partition table. That's just a fact of life. On a multi-gig disk the measly
few megabytes that you "lose" this way are totally insignificant.
Good luck,
Doug
