various problems and observations
Here is a set of observations.
1. I ran Executor/Dos after I exited windows. (DX2-66, 8M RAM). I invoked NIH
image. All is well. I had pictures on my A-drive disk. Tried to aquire
from A by finder and the light goes on but no A drive on Hot Band. Did a
listing of the NIH-IMAGE in folder with all the different folders and they
all had a size of 0 except the text file that accompanied them. (NIH image as
an application works, so far fine. I could not access the A drive. Started
to search all the drives, reached the Z: drive (part of a network) and E/D
locked up.
2. Made a batch file to start DOS with no drivers at all except graphics and
mouse.
E/D lost my registration information (???). Text-Edit worked well. Went back
to NIH IMAGE. Loaded well, again, an inability to access drive A:. Checked
contents of all drives and unlike the 1st case, when I reached the last drive
(which was not a network drive), I circled to the first drive. No lockup.
Finder still reporting 0 bytes for all the IMAGE files except the text file.
Questions:
DId I lose registration information (under 1) when I had to reboot?
How does one access an A: drive? (If it is the FAQ or the Exec/D
manual, please point me to the proper page. I searched but my eyes are going
-where?).
I forgot to add that I am using Executor 1.99o/Dos.
Many thanks,
