FWIW, I have absolutely no problem running WHDLoad games off my thumbdrive using Deneb - so am surprised to hear you're having bad luck. WHDLoad itself is in Sys:C of course, but the games are loaded externally via thumbdrive on my A3000 setup.

I think it depends what games you are playing with WHDLoad.
Have you ever tried for example Cannon Fodder or Stardust ?

Oh yeah, I'd know right away if those two favs didn't work! lol  

My USB thumbdrive is an HP 4GB and I leave it hooked to Deneb (PIO mode) pretty much all the time unless I need to transfer some files. Card is formatted as FAT (whatever OSX 10.4.11 uses). Again - I have absolutely no problems running any of my favorite WHDLoad games off the thumbdrive. Never tried it with Poseidon "online" hooked to the 'Net though. But Poseidon is obviously running as you need it to access the contents of the thumbdrive. The stack (typical scenario) is even loaded into Deneb's Flash.

Matt_H may be on to something there though suggesting it's a TCP/IP thing... ?
