He has ran into some problems that with which I'm not familiar. If the following description has any meaning to you, could you please make some suggestion as to what I should try. -The system crashed, nothing at all worked, the -screen showed a negative image of the display that had been on, and I -had no choice but to switch off the system. (Agian, nothing -worked--not any key on the keboard nor the mouse nor any thing. I -tried various reboots and I thought I was successful, as -the system passed all self tests and said that it was successful at -salvaging boot volume. However, it stopped with the following -message: - AEGIS-DOMAIN/IX Kernal, revision 9.7....DATE... - Could not create R/W scratch file, status code:000E0003 - Could not create Installed-Global-Table - F 120011 - 8085FE:3152 - (and then the prompt) - -(Incidentally, it is very hot in the office, and I suppose that heat -could have been the problen in the first place.)
