Title: Disk NOT Validated?
Post by: zonaps2 on June 01, 2009, 01:29:57 AM

I have that error pretty common with Workbench 1.3 on my A500 when I want to save something to the floppy (I don't have a Hard Drive). What does it means? Can I fix it?

thanks.

Hi zonaps2: Well, first I hope you have backups of your Workbench disk. Get that backup, make another copy, and use that copy for your WB disk. Second, there's not much room free on any version Workbench floppy to save much of anything, and floppies have only a limited lifespan anyway. You should format a blank disk, and use that for your own data.

Thanks for your help, the backup I have had the same problem, however I transfer an .adf to my A500 with a version of workbench and the error is gone!

I just want to save the SERIAL PORT config so I don't have to change it everytime.

thanks!
