OS3.9 CrossDos
« on: June 16, 2007, 01:03:48 PM »
Im now having problems with crossdos on os3.9, i have to send elbox a mediator txt report file as i have no internet connection on my A4000 i have to copy the file to a 720k disk and go from there.

I open up PC0 and drag the txt file onto it and it says it has copied it and the disk space has filled up by 1%.

When i eject the disk and put it into my PC the file is not on there. I did the routine again, ejected it and then put it back in the Amiga drive and the file is still not on there.

Why is the Amiga saying it has copied the file when it hasnt?

It was formatted on my PC. The Amiga can read whats on it but cant copy to it. I tried formatting it on the Amiga but it said 'Formatting error cylinder 0'?

i put the devs/dosdrivers/pco into storage/dosdrivers (and reset computer) when i put a msdos disk in it comes up with the crossdos box.
ive just tried to format a disk and the bar went up to 100%, so i thought it had done it but when i clicked on pc0 it still had the original volume name and the disk was 65% full with files?!

Thanks for your suggestions but i found the problem.

I am using an Amitek external drive and it has a 3 way switch that says Anti-virus/On/Off and it was on the Anti-virus setting, when i put it to On it allowed me to copy stuff. So i guess the Anti-virus setting was doing its job in not letting any files get transfered.
