- When I first bought Amos Pro, a couple of my original disks (straight
- from the box) were gubbed! I simply used QBack Tools and it sorted 'em
- out. I made backups and installed it with ease. I did contact
- Europress for new copies, but I never received 'em! (Surprise
- Surprise).
-
- Anyway, this isn't your problem, but I suspect you would do better if
- you totally removed Amos from your HD (and any assigns) and simply
- re-install from scratch.
-
- It seems Amos can't find some of your required files. Maybe you have
- some extensions missing or summat?
-
- Anyway, do the above and see how you go...
-
- Hope this has been of some help (probably a late reply, but I have
- been busy), so fogive me if you already have the problem sorted.
-
- cya, Andy
-
- BTW Does anyone on this list think it would be immoral to send someone
- new/working copies of some Amos Pro disks to replace gubbed ones? What
- with Europress buggering off and leaving us to fend for ourselves `n'
- all? I know it's still piracy, but surely if someone can prove they
- have the original disks, this shouldn't be a problem? Where else can
- we turn to for new copies.
-
- And before anyone says anything, I do NOT need new disks, I got 'em
- from somewhere else :)
