Press Setup (Shift-F1), Location Of Auxiliary Files (6), Printer Files (4) and check the path. 4. Save the file under a different name than the subdirectory 5. Close or delete the .BV1 files 6. Turn Fast Save off or save the file with a different name 7. Add CACHE BUFFERS=0 to the SHELL.CFG file Another customer, on a network, experienced this error message because the file being saved was damaged. If the items above are not the cause of the error message, then you may want to investigate the possibility of file damage. If the file save process is interrupted or the file integrity is compromised (disk cache, network problems), the possibility of a damaged file is enhanced. One way to troubleshoot this situation is to attempt to save the file to a local device instead of to the network. Another way to try and save a file that you suspect may be damaged is to block and copy the file to document screen two. |
