All good suggestions guys, thanks.
I will run scandisk, and I also plan to add another hard driver as a backup.
PADS doesn't need the path directive, as it knows where to find the files.
As far as a Dos box, I have tried that, but as both the schematic capture program and PADs
have built-in...
I have been using it since the early 80s. The schematic program is Schema by Omation. Great programs. Pads integrated the
Schema net list so you can forward and back eco. I also use Wordstar on the DOS box.
As a one man consulting business, I couldn't afford to upgrade to the Windows...
I have been using the DOS version of PADS forever. Keep a DOS computer just for that.
Today, the program won't launch. Error message "can't find data base info file c:\pcb\usr.ln exiting"
That file does exist. I copied a backup for all the libraries, and get the same message.
