When I turned off 32-bit file access, things started working as expected. Thanks. As I stated in another message, my new problem is a machine freeze when I exit PAR.EXE in DOS. Also, I get a memory protect violation if I try PAR.EXE from a DOS window in Windows. The…
Thanks. The PAR drives don't show 32-bit file access enabled. Does this mean I have to turn off 32-bit file access for all drives? I hope not, but i'll give it a try and see what happens. Thanks for the pointer to the Razor Pro manula. I knew I had…
I want to be able to use Razor Pro with it and use the windows PAR player, so it would be nice to get it working. I have a new problem. I downloaded the latest version of the PAR utils from their FTP site, and now, each time I exit…

Assuming you are working from the sources and have the microsoft C compiler, you need to relink the program with the setargv.obj object file that comes with the compiler.

Hard Drivin' is the culmination of a 3-year research project on simulation technology and feedback control devices. The hardware is a nightmare of stuff including a couple of DSP chips, TWO 34010 graphics chips, a 68010 to coordinate it all, oodles of memory, a couple of custom chips with glue…

I have an aging 1000 with the old Xebec 20-meg hard disk system, and I am running out of space (:-). Has anyone with this system connected a second generic (or specific) SCSI drive up to the Xebec SCSI interface? If so, is it a straight-forward process? Pointers would be…

In case you don't already know, there is a contact with the Japanese authors in Section 10 of the IBMPRO forum. You should be able to get answers to your questions there, but I think that they intend to keep a copyright on the source code, while allowing free distribution…
