Message-ID: Date: 9 Apr 91 04:47:29 GMT References: Organization: Rutgers Univ., New Brunswick, N.J. Lines: 48 Thank you for your responses. Andy asked for more information so here it is: Again, I have a ROM 01 Apple IIGS. I have an octoram board with 2 one megabyte simms in it for a total of 2 meg of expansion ram. In slot 1 I have a RAMFAST SCSI board from CV Technologies. In slot 3 I have a Transwarp GS. In slot 5 I have an MDIdeas Supersonic Stereo card and digitizer. I use AppleTalk for printing so I have slot 7 set to AppleTalk. When I boot the system on my hard disk (5.0.4) I have 808k in use, 1495k free and 0k in ram disk When I try to launch hypercard by double clicking on it, or on a stack, it crashes with a "system error 201 occurred while loading the next program" When I boot from a system 5.0.4 system.disk master modified only by having the RAMFAST driver added and the 5.25" driver removed, I have 612k in use and 1691k free. I still have a 0k ramdisk. The system crashes exactly the same way. The Hypercard on the CD ROM was created Wed Dec 5 1990 at 4:10pm and the last modified date is Wed Dec 5 1990 at 5:58 pm. The file is 649,910 bytes long. I had to go through a lot of trouble to borrow a CD ROM player to use this and other Apple II CD's. Everything else I copied off of CD rom works fine. I had to return the CD ROM player so I don't know what I'll do if the files are bad. The files I have in my hypercard directory are: HypercardIIGS : the program Hypercard.IIGS : supposedly a stack to show off the program Home : The home stack Apple.IIe.card : a stack to describe the apple IIe card for the Maclc Start.Here : a top level stack for the other two tour stacks Hypercard.icons: an icon file Well, can anyone think of any other information that would shed light on this subject? Again, the copy of Hypercard GS I am working with came from the 111 Spring 1991 new products CDROM from Apple. Thanks again for any pointers Seymour
