TITLE: "Unrecoverable Application Error" and Termination to DOS
PRODUCT: Ami Pro 2.0
DATE: 15-Oct-1991
PROBLEM:
The Windows message "Unrecoverable Application Error, Terminating Current
Application" appears while using Ami Pro release 2.0, then Ami Pro and Windows
terminate to the DOS prompt. At other times the message "Cannot Write To
Drive X" appears.
SOLUTION:
A customer report indicates that having a permanent Windows Swapfile on a SCSI
hard drive may result in the above two errors. The customer report indicates
that deleting the permanent Windows Swapfile eliminated both errors.
Information gathered from other sources indicates that customers experiencing
file corruption on SCSI drives when using Windows in 386 enhanced mode should
refer to the hard drive's documentation for instructions on configuring the
drive to use standard DMA channels and not the manufacturer's proprietary
transfer method (make sure the drive meets the industry standard Virtual DMA
Services), and on configuring the drive for double buffering.
SCSI drives that are using Direct Memory Access (DMA) with Windows require
additional configuration in the Windows SYSTEM.INI file. Using Windows
Notepad or the Windows System Configuration Editor (SYSEDIT.EXE located in the
SYSTEM directory beneath the Windows program directory), open the SYSTEM.INI
file. Search for the section titled [386Enh]. Add the following line to this
section:
VirtualHDIRQ=FALSE
