- OK, here's the scenarios this time...I had two HFV files, one at 25 meg, and
- one at 38 meg....I made one 50 megger, and copied the contents of the other
- two onto the one large HFV...I deleted the other two, and today I have a
- problem...All of my program s(mostly games) were copied into one big folder,
- and today only the icons for the first half of them come up...those programs
- are fine...for the other ones, the generic application icon comes up, and when
- trying to run any of these programs it launche then returns to browser with no
- messages or errors...
- 1 - I had a virus about a year or so that truly messed up my FAT on my
- computer, and wrecked lots of files...the FAT is permanently screwed up until
- I get a backup and reformat the thing (it's about a gig, so it might be
- awhile) Things still run and all, it's just that when the system tries to
- write files to the messed up fat part, things get kinda screwy...another thing
- that happened was, after creating the 50 megger, I ran chkdsk and it said
- something about a sector being crosslinked and truncating the HFV...so that
- might be it to...either way, if I can help figure out what's happened, lemme
- know!
- later
