Brian,
>> That would certainly remove some of the strain on your hard disk.
Especially if you use a new cartridge. remember, though, that the temp files
the FLC creates are not the only temp files written. Pharlap writes files to
the drive specified in the CFIG386 settings. <<
Thanks — that is a useful piece of information. I'm aware of the temp file
location setting in CFIG386. When you referred to the temp file conflict with
Stacker, I thought these temp files were the ones you were referring to.
Your info means I can maintain the temp dir location set in CFIG386, i.e. on
the permanent drive, and safely render to the Sysquest drive, to which I
assume, Pharlap will automatically send the flc related temp files,
irrespective of the CFIG386 setting.
By the way, this problem has been a serious headache for a long time. Your
help is really appreciated — I wish I had asked sooner!
Cheers,
Chas
