	I have been using my 1040 (1986 vintage) with a SH205 hard disk and
gulam (1.00) with Lattice C 3.04 for a while now, and about a week ago I 
started getting strange errors. First the compiler would start complaining
about a program in the second phase, with CXERR 28 and other CXERRs as well
sometimes. BUT this was with programs which I had compiled successfully before.
	Then it got worse. Make would bomb out after only printing one 
character on the screen, then using the compiler I would get 2, 3 or even 4
bombs while it was compiling (and it would keep merrily compiling). I tried it
without gulam and still got the same problems. I tried compiling with all the
source files in a ram disk and it did work one time, but the next time it only
worked for about 3 or so files and then it started bombing again. I thought I
might have a virus, but vdu and viruskill didn't think so. I reformatted the
hard disk but still no luck. The only time I can get the compiler to work is
from a ramdisk using floppies instead of the harddisk.
	Most other programs work, while I am using the hard disk,except that
sometimes I get a TOS error #35 when trying to run something. I only have
trouble when I'm using the hard disk, but reformatting the hard disk didn't
help. 
	Does anyone have any idea what it could be ??? I'm going crazy not
being able to use the hard disk for programming.
	Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
