WHDLoad problem

[KatManDEW]

I added some memory to the GVP 040 in my Amiga 2000, and now all my WHDLoad games say "DOS -Error #235 (bad loadfile hunk", or "Slave is illegal because it contains more than one hunk".

I ran several memory tests and found no problems.
 
Anyone have any idea what is wrong?

I got that when the RAM configuration was wrong.

It was on a different board to yours, but this board needed 8mb as 4x 2mb sticks...I had 2x 4mb sticks installed, everything else worked fine except iBrowse & of course the same WHDLoad failure you are getting.

Maybe check the compatibility of your RAM? Check jumper positions too?

Try Jumper 20 on your GVP: Closed using 4mb sticks, Open using 16mb sticks.

 Too much memory chunks.

 Memory needs to be in one contiguous address to WHDload works.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Jumper 20 is closed on my GVP because I have 4 meg sticks. I noticed that the jumper for DTAK pullup has been wrong on my GVP all these years, so I changed that, but it didn't help WHDLoad.

I found my GVP install disk and the GVP memory test passed.

I originally had one 4 meg simm, and I got 3 additional ones from SoftHut, which were supposed to be compatable.

What causes that, and how can it be rectified>?

WHDLoad support suggested the NOMEMREVERSE option, and that worked.
