I started to run into some strange doings under GS/OS V3.0. My first problem is with Purge-o-matic. I took the suggestion that was posted here on using POM with Deluxe Paint II. This worked fine. Problem is that sometimes it doesn't. I had on several occasions encountered a "GS/OS system Error" when I use POM to start up POM or SHRConvert 2.1 I find that if I power down the system keep it off for a few seconds and then turn on the power, it will sometimes work and things are back to normal. When it fails on DP-II it also fails on SHRConv.2.1 The error message is: GS/OS SYSTEM ERROR ADDRESS = $00E284 LC BANK $0 ERROR CODE = $0002 This is for DP-II. I get a different address for SHRC 2.1 I haven't noticed whether the address is the same for different occurances. I have 1.25 M of memory, I've installed the system via the installer. I also tried setting the RAM disk setting to 0. I have an APPLE expansion memory card. The other problem I have I've already discussed in a separate topic. That is encountering an INITIALIZATION ERROR --->0201 when attempting to run DiskTimerGS. I don't know if this is related to the above problem or not. Anyone out there have any thoughts on these problems.

I'm not sure if my experiences are directly related but I'll share them anyway. I also got a GS/OS system error when running SHRConvert's POM. And on one execution it bombed to the monitor. BUT, this only happened when I switched the SHRConvert-Finder.Icons it to my Icon dir.!! AND as soon as I started getting weird problems a little bell went off in my head and Dave's words came back to me, "Don't mess with Sys. 5.0's Icons!" So I swapped back and haven't had narry a problem since.... I had several other "transitional" problems when executing other applications and transitioning back to the Finder. If you are using somebody's Finder.Icons (besides Apple's), I suggest you switch back and see if your problems go way. > Thanks in advance for your help.....Chris +---------------------------------------------------------+ | The Apple //'s will live forever!! | | Phil Lindberg snail mail: 13845 S.E. 131 ST | | INET: prl3546@tahoma.UUCP Renton, WA 98056 | | UUCP: ..!uw-beaver!ssc-vax!shuksan!tahoma!prl3546 | | Disclaimer: I don't speak for my employer (and I not | | sure they even know I exist....) | +---------------------------------------------------------+
