I would like to help you, but from what you wrote, it seems you may be having
other problems. A few general things to try:
1. Run scandisk on all drives to repair any disk errors.
2. Try shutting down some of the background programs running (like in the
tray) One of those programs may be conflicting with dos-based programs.
3. Try starting Win9x "clean" - when you see the words "starting Windows 9x"
or when you see the Windows splash-screen graphic, press and hold the Shift key
until Windows finishes loading. That should bypass most startup programs.
If one of the background programs is causing the problem, you need to isolate
which one, and either stop using it altogether, or get an updated/fixed copy
that works.
Question: Does the program ledit.exe work? What about makelst2.exe? Note: the
program makelist.exe will *not* work if you have added all the lcad update
parts - you have to use makelst2.exe.
Anyone have any other ideas?
