I am not sure if this is the proper group to post my problem but it
seems to be the closest.

I am using QuickC 2.5 on a 386 machine with an 80 MEG harddisk formatted
into 3 partitions 32, 32, 16 MEG respectively.

My problem is when I compile an link a project within the QC environment
it comes back at me with:
error L1230: invalid SELF-REL FIXUP(tar) filename.obj etc...

This problem occurrs only with a specific file and ONLY on this
particular machine. I have no problem on a 286 machine with the
identical HD and partitioning.

If I delete the .ilk file belonging to the project everything goes
smooth.

After a while my HD shows, using Norton Disk Dr., a number of lost
files.

Can anyone try to explain to me what is happening or a workaround?
