Ok, found something interesting. If I put the programs that don't run in my work partition they work fine but if they ar in any other partition they give me the error.
Thoughts?



Could be a MaxTransfer problem. The ProTracker executable is bigger than 128K. If you try to load it from a partition with MaxTransfer > 128K on the internal IDE bus, the file is corrupted and cannot be loaded as a program.

Files are also currupted during write, so after correcting MaxTransfer you have to copy all files bigger than 128K again.

Does the program work if you run it from the DOS shell?

Code: [Select]

3.System 3.1:> cd music:
3.Music:> pt315

Is this a setting that I can change during the initial setup of the partitions?


Yes, it should be set in HDToolbox when creating a partition. But for SCSI the limit is 32 MB or even more rather than 128 KB.
