[comp.sys.amiga] SURF crashing - Does it happen to you?

sean@ms.uky.edu (Sean Casey) (10/28/88)

Two other people have sent me mail saying that surf crashes exactly the
same way on their machines as it does mine. Whew! At least it doesn't
look like bad ram now.

One has an A1000 like me, I don't know what the other has yet.

I want to find out specifically what we have in common that is causing
the problem. I suspect it may be that it doesn't want to run on an
A1000. The program crashes even when brought up from a virgin 1.2 kick
and workbench. I'm pretty sure it's not a lack of memory.

Please let me know if it won't run for you, and what kind of machine
you have. I'm going to keep experimenting...

[bleh!]

Just a quick note to let you know that SURF works just fine for me.
My set up is:
		A1000
		Escort-2 2 Meg memory on SOTS
		Synergy 30 Meg SCSI HD on pass-thru from the Escort

So the problem you see is not universal to all A1000's.
