![]() ![]() I suppose I could just have some bad games, but then why would the control panel give me an error? I'm really stumped. They're not being loaded or anything when I boot. However if it's a program conflict of some sort, why is it still there when I reinstall System 6? I have some applications like Stuffit 3.x and Disk Copy, but they're sitting in a separate folder and not being run. Bad copy of the System 6.0.8 disk (also unlikely) SCSI conflict of some sort (also unlikely as the HD and CD seem to work just fine)ģ. Bad ROM or Memory (unlikely as those give different errors and stop the system from booting)Ģ. All I can come up with at this point is that it might be:ġ. Could just the presence of a bad program in a folder cause the Mac to go wonky or does it have to be 'installed' into the System folder for that to happen? I wiped my System folder and reinstalled System 6.0.8 but I'm still having problems. Just got an Illegal Instruction error in the control panel again. I'll try downloading it directly and see. I think this isn't the one I got from the authors website, but another sit. Fools Errand crashes on Wheel of Fortune even booting from the System Disk. With Gunshy I wonder if it's not looking for Icons for the tiles in the system somewhere and being blocked? Very odd.ĮDIT: It's not just booting from the HD. I suppose I can just boot from a System Disk to avoid most of these issues, but I'm really curious as to why they're happening. In addition when I boot from the HD (with the CD Drivers) The Fools Errand crashes with an Illegal Instruction error after starting The Wheel of Fortune Puzzle and Dark Castle complains about memory (although that's not really a crash, but I do have 4MB with almost no extensions being loaded). Shuffle Puck Cafe crashes with an illegal Instruction error after the Broderbund Screen (might be a bad copy), Gunshy crashes with an Illegal Instruction error on startup (this program seems very touchy for some reason). ![]() Booting from a System Disk I still get errors in games. I'll try and do more tests tonight and see if I can pin point the problem with certainty. One I think is for the MAGIC menu and I'm not sure what the other one does).ĭoes anyone know if StuffIt Deluxe 4.01 has a history of problems with 6.0.8 or maybe with the Mac Plus in general? I think I have a copy of StuffIt 1.5.3 that I can use instead, but obviously I'd like to use the latest version that works on my machine. ![]() :scrambled: I think it may have something to do with the extensions it's loading (there are two. It seems that after I install it and reboot things start to go wonky. Through trial and error I think I've determined that StuffIt Deluxe 4.01 is the culprit. Since I had no idea what caused the problem I took my Mac back to a base level and started over again installing everything one at a time and testing. Now suddenly I'm getting Unimplemented Instruction, Unimplemented Trap, and Address Error errors (and even the occasional No CoProcessor Installed error) when starting and exiting certain games and even when going into the Control Panel. At first everything seemed to be going fine so I started loading some apps and games on the HD. It has 4MB, a 500MB external HD, an CD Drive (an Apple CD150), and is running System 6.0.8. Apart from using it to complete that chore, however, few users will be pleased with what this utility offers.With the help of a friend I finally have my Mac plus up and running. SITX files regularly-or ever-you have little choice but to use this utility. ![]() Of course, the one thing that StuffIt Expander does offer that other file-extraction tools don't is the capability to open StuffIt (.SITX) files, a popular Mac compression format. In addition, there is no Windows shell integration, and contrary to the publisher description, you cannot drag files onto the application window or its icon to prompt expansion. You cannot open more than one archive at a time, and the application cannot automatically create a folder for the archives you do expand. You can sort the resulting list by file name but not by size, location, or file type. On opening-and every time you return to the main window-the application insists on searching your computer for all supported files. Unfortunately, the program is hampered by a '90s-era user interface, limited functionality, and poor integration with Windows. According to its comprehensive Help file, StuffIt Expander 13.0.1.1 can now handle more than 30 file types, including. The utility fulfills its promise to handle more file types than past incarnations, which had been limited to. Users looking for a tool to extract multiple archive types may be disappointed by the bare and clumsy interface of this latest iteration of StuffIt Expander. ![]()
