NOT DOS DISK ???

[browny]

Hi Folks !,
Anyone got any ideas as to why MakeCD is trashing
my system partition?.
Explaination:
When i use Makecd `on the fly` i have no probs.
Then when I start to use an image file and copy to disk,that part of the process is ok, But after doing that and turning the miggy off, when i turn the miggy back on the dreadded `NOT A DOS DISK ` appears.
This is always after i have been using MakeCD
to create image files.
I am getting sick of reformatting and installing the system back to normal.
I am using a ELBOX 4 way IDE I/face, which has my HD and CD writer attached, and am running them with IDEfix97 S/Ware.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the idea`s Vortexau,
I take it that you mean ticking the option for READ ONLY in the icon prefs? .
I will try that.
Can any one point me in the right direction for a
Bug Bustin` Virus checker.
Cheers

Cheers Piru,
I have checked the Block medium and all is ok, i think your on to something with the >4gig area though.
My HD is bigger than that.
Also on the same page is Permit Exall() and Unprotect,  both these settings are enabled, what would you suggest?

Thanks again Piru,
I checked the RDB,all is well.
Then I looked in L: for the FFS, would you believe it
it was not there!.
for some reason when reinstalling WB it was not throwing FFS into L:
God knows how that happened, but hey I knew the answer was here.

Thanks to all
May all your code be bug free!!
