Hi Netlanders, I'm having some weird problems with my Mac plus. When I use multifinder and I insert a floppy after I ran a program (any program does, but the error doesn't occur immediately after startup) I get an error (falling into MacsBug). System information: Mac plus with 4 M RAM, Cutting Edge Harddisk 60M, tried it using system 6.0.3, 6.0.4 and 6.0.5, tried it without any INIT's (Normally I use SAM intercept, ATM 2.0, Typealign, SuitcaseII DFaultD, SFInit, On Que and Afterdark). I don't know the exact ROM version of my Mac but I bought it in December 1989. Of course I ran the most recent Virusdetectors on my system (using singlefinder) and they told me there aren't any virusses in my system. The problems disappears when using singlefinder. As far as I remember it started after connecting the harddisk to my Mac. Yesterday I reformatted my HD with unimac's storware. There was a difference: There was now a adress error in high RAM (or was it ROM ?; I forgot the exact adress.) instead of the illegal instruction error in low RAM I got when I used the original Cutting Edge format. B.t.w.: I know that low adress belonged to the driver of the SCSI harddisk, because some bytes near the address where the error occurred contained the text "HDDriver 2.0", ergo the CE driver software. Has anybody in netland had some similar experiences, or does anybody know what can be the problem? thanks in advance, Luc. .........................................................................
