Error - "Write Protect Error Writing Drive G. |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 6.0 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The error "Write Protect Error Writing Drive G. Press Any Key To Continue" appeared when a user tried to launch WP 6.0 on a DEC Pathworks network. Then the screen display changed to something like 40x15 (a very large screen font). Typing MODE CO80 from the DOS prompt set the screen display back to normal. Solutions: Changing the order of the devices in the CONFIG.SYS and increasing the number of Files and Buffers resolved the problem. The original and the modified CONFIG.SYS files are below: Original CONFIG.SYS buffers=8 files=20 DEVICE=c:\decnet\laddrv.sys /D:4 shell=c:\command.com /P /E:526 DEVICE=c:\DECNET\PROTMAN.SYS /I:C:\DECNET DEVICE=c:\DECNET\ELNKII.DOS device=c:\decnet\hiMEM.sys lastdrive=z Modified CONFIG.SYS device=c:\decnet\himem.sys DEVICE=c:\DECNET\PROTMAN.SYS /I:C:\DECNET DEVICE=c:\DECNET\ELNKII.DOS DEVICE=c:\decnet\laddrv.sys /D:4 buffers=20 files=30 shell=c:\command.com /P /E:526 lastdrive=z |
