You have not said whether you are using a real Coco or an emulator (VCC or 
MESS). I can see DW4 getting into trouble if, for example, you are using the 
Becker VCC and have a .vhd mounted in both DW4 and VCC.
Generally you should not have a disk floppy or .vhd mounted in two different 
devices at the same time. If you are lucky, you won't be able to access the 
drive. A worst case could damage the drive or an ini/xml file.
