[comp.sys.amiga] Trouble with A-MaxII and WORD

gpotts@oregon.uoregon.edu (12/16/90)

I've been having problems running Word under A-Max II. 
Problem #1:
	I sometimes crash A-Max when I use the cursor keys to move the cursor.
	I sometimes get a Mac system bomb, ID 2 or 3 and sometimes the screen
	just goes to confetti.

Problem #2:
	Sometimes when saving a file to either floppy or HD I get a Mac alert
	saying "Unrecoverable disk error of file 'filename'". I am usually
	able to cancel this alert and then sucessfully save the file to the
	same place it just failed. Sometimes, however, I get a Mac system
	crash.

I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem or if it has something
to do with my set-up.

I am running A-MaxII on an A2000 with 1 meg chip & 2 megs fast RAM, an external
Cutting Edge Mac floppy, a Supra Wordsync controller driving a Seagate 60meg
HD with 2 Amiga and 1 Mac partition, and an A2320 display enhancer. 

The write problem predates the Mac HD partition so is probably not related to
the driver.

Thanks.

What versions of Word, System and Finder are you using?  Are these write
errors occurring on floppies as well?  Have you run Disinfectant to see
if you have any viruses? (grin)  What INIT's or CDEV's are you running?
Are you using Multifinder?
